Masterclass minimally invasive fluorescence-guided surgery - 21 - 22 November 2019

Open for all specialties

FULL PROGRAM

Day 1 Dry lab session – isolated and cadaveric models

12h00 - 12h30 Lunch

12h30 - 13h00 Technical introduction to the fluorescence guided surgery course

– Fijs Van Leeuwen

13h00 - 17h00 Training (4 stations in total)

A) Fluorescence in robotic assisted surgery - multispecialty – 2 stations (Intuitive da Vinci X(i))

• Performing bowel anastomosis on isolated model using ICG
• Performing ureteral reimplantation on isolated model using ICG
• Resection of fluorescent lesions in pig cadaver; simulated partial nephrectomy model wherein the fluorescent lesions are used to identify the procedure related landmarks

B) Fluorescence in laparoscopic assisted surgery – multispecialty – 2 stations (Karl Stroz Image 1S

HD camera platform)

• Performing bowel anastomosis on isolated model using ICG
• Performing partial nephrectomy on isolated model using ICG
• Resection of fluorescent lesions in pig cadaver; simplified colorectal model wherein the fluorescent lesions are used to identify the procedure related landmarks

17h00 Wrap up and discussion
