This course will introduce the equipment and techniques needed to incorporate this minimally invasive procedure into practice.
Lively interactive case-based discussions from expert faculty and intensive hands-on cadaveric dissection* highlight this annual program.
Participants will examine the advantages of sialendoscopy and identify patients for whom this minimally invasive procedure would be most appropriate. Specific strategies to incorporate sialendoscopy and hybrid techniques into practice will be identified.
*Space is limited for the optional hands-on dissection lab. Be sure to register early!
