Advanced Level Regional Anatomical Specimen Course—MISS and Endoscopic Spine Surgery

Bangkok, Thailand | October 26-27, 2024

This course covers the basic techniques of endoscopic (uniportal and biportal) surgery, a new technique in spine surgery, basic posterior thoracic and lumbar instrumentation techniques, and recent surgical techniques through minimal approaches. Through short lectures given by experienced professors, surgical procedures shown on actual cadavers, and attendees performing the surgery themselves, we provide an opportunity to acquire and improve surgical skills.
