Dear Colleagues! lt is a great pleasure to invite you to our skull base training course.

The course is intended primarily to help surgeons strengthen their knowledge and experience with skull base approaches. 

It features an esteemed international faculty and employs a multifaceted approach, including lectures, case discussions, and hands-on dissection. The didactic sessions will center on 3-D anatomy, along with principles, tactics, and contemporary methodologies for addressing various conditions such as tumors, vascular injuries, and trauma. 

Dissection activities will encompass prevalent microsurgical methods, conducted in a well-equipped anatomical specimen laboratory. A special emphasis will be placed on numerous case discussion sessions, during which participants are encouraged to contribute their own cases alongside those presented by the faculty.

Target Audience: Neurosurgeons, Maxillofacial Surgeons, ENT surgeons or Trauma Surgeons
Course-Info: CRANIAL ACCESS - Dissection Course 2024

We look forward welcoming you soon in Vienna!

Course Directors: Johannes Herta & Matthias Millesi
Senior Directors: Christian Matula & Karl Rössler

This three-day course teaches the surgical techniques and anatomy for epilepsy surgery, giving hope to patients suffering from drug-resistant seizures.

Experts on the subject will present the anatomical indications and technical aspects of epilepsy surgery, along with the risks, benefits and outcomes.

SAVE the DATE and REGISTER!

Target Audience:
The objectives of the course are primarily aimed at 5th-6th year neurosurgery residents who have already decided to specialize in functional neurosurgery, as well as young neurosurgeons who have started a program in functional neurosurgery in the last few years.

Course Description:
The three full day course is divided into morning lectures and afternoon dissection sessions on brain specimen in the laboratory.
Our international Faculty and local experts in functional neurosurgery will give basic and advanced lectures on all topics of epilepsy surgery and advise on the dissection of brain specimen using microscope, CUSA and micro instruments.

Number of participants: 20
Registration fee: € 650
Application deadline: 01.05.2024

The 11th European-Japanese Cerebrovascular Congress (EJCVC), organized by the  Medical University of Vienna and the University Hospital Zurich (USZ), is scheduled to take place for the first time in Vienna, from June 27 to 29, 2024.
This congress serves as a unique platform for the exchange of the latest research advancements in multimodal cerebrovascular surgery and intervention for the treatment of aneurysms, malformations, and stroke.
The objective of the 11th EJCVC is to foster networking among cerebrovascular
specialists, continuing the rich tradition of global knowledge sharing with specifc vascular focu

The Satellite Pre-congress EventWorkshop on Neurophysiology: Advanced applications in cerebrovascular surgery - directed by Karl Rössler and Klaus Novak will take place on June 26, 2024.


REGISTRATION: EJCVC 2024
PRELIMINARY PROGRAM: EJCVC 2024 & PRE-KONGRESS WORKSHOP

Dear Colleagues! lt is a great pleasure to invite you to our training course on the “Basic techniques of microsurgery and cerebral revascularization”.

Our workshop will focus on basic skills to handle the operating microscope and the instruments correctly. Furthermore, you will learn the micromanipulation of different tissues including small vessels and nerves under the microscope.
Different kinds of microsurgical anastomosis and nerve coaptations will be performed as well. The course is dedicated not only to residents and young neurosurgeons, also the advanced neurosurgeon will have the opportunity to improve his/her techniques under the supervision of experts in the field.

In addition, lectures on different topics relating to microneurosurgery will be presented in between the practical sessions. At least 5 hours of daily practical training have to be anticipated by the trainees. At end of the training course, lectures from multidisciplinary specialists will focus on presenting the state of the art techniques, indications and latest evidence on cerebral revascularization.

Sincerely yours,

Lectures and Hands-on in Epilepsy Surgery, Neuropathology and Neuroanatomy

Surgical management of drug-resistant focal epilepsy represents a successful treatment option in carefully selected patients. It is thus of utmost importance to identify patients amenable to epilepsy surgery early enough during the disease course and submit to a pre-surgical evaluation.

INES 2023 VIENNA, the 13th ILAE Summer School for Neuropathology and Epilepsy Surgery (1st meeting in Vienna), is designed to enable participants to better recognize and classify various lesional substrates of drug-resistant epilepsy. Advanced hands-on surgical training will be offered in small groups led by distinguished tutors who will give hands-on demonstrations on macro- and microscopical brain specimen. Participants will also have the opportunity to perform surgical approaches on cadavers and diagnose histopathological cases under the microscope. 

Target Audience: Neurosurgeons, neuro-/pathologists, epileptologists, neurologists, neuroimagers, and basic researchers

We look forward to welcoming our international guests, lecturers, scientists and physicians in Vienna soon,

Dear Colleagues! lt is a great pleasure to invite you to a Symposium on ‘Cerebrovascular Neurosurgery and Interventions’

We were able to gain world-renown cerebrovascular experts (neurosurgeons, radiologists, neurologists) from Japan, the United States and Europe as speakers on these major topics: bypass surgery, multimodal treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms, AVM therapy as well as the value of simulators for the education of future specialists.

We look forward welcoming you soon in Vienna,
