Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery


About the Course....This course is designed to present an array of plastic and reconstructive surgical techniques with a primary emphasis on information germane to the practical application of these methods. The focus of this course will be on the “how-to” aspects of the methods presented and is designed to be an in-tense, material-dense exposure to an array of techniques and issues relevant to wound reconstructions of various types. The lectures will include brief overviews of the relevant principles for each method, but will primarily focus on those aspects of the techniques which will allow their successful application in clinical cases.

Techniques and Problem Solving in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Techniques you will gain from this course.....


 ▪ Wound healing, tissue injury and repair
