A three-day intensive training course focused on developing practical skills in microsurgical techniques. Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of vascular and nerve suturing, the performance of end-to-end and end-to-side anastomoses, as well as the dissection of vascular-nerve structures in synthetic and “in vivo” models. The program combines theoretical sessions with extensive hands-on practice on dissection boards and organic tissue, ensuring a comprehensive and highly specialized experience.

The XLIV Microvascular and Nervous Microsurgery Course is designed for professionals seeking to acquire and refine skills in the use of microsurgical instruments and techniques. Over three intensive days, participants are introduced to both the theoretical and practical foundations of microsurgery, following a progressive, hands-on approach from basic suturing exercises to advanced procedures on “in vivo” models.
The program begins with an introduction to microsurgery and suturing exercises on practice plates, allowing participants to develop the precision and coordination required under magnification. Advanced techniques include end-to-end arterial anastomosis on synthetic and live vessels, end-to-side anastomosis, nerve suturing with dissection of the sciatic nerve, and venous suturing on the femoral vein, including venous autograft practice.
he course combines theoretical sessions led by specialists with an extensive practical component focusing on living tissue and experimental models, promoting active learning in a highly controlled environment equipped with the latest technical resources. Thanks to this structure, participants will develop the skills necessary to apply microsurgical techniques with confidence and precision in both clinical and experimental settings.
