Laparoscopic surgery has become an integral part of a urologist’s practice. Laparoscopy has been accepted as the gold standard for procedures like Orchidopexy, Nephrectomy and Pyeloplasty. Patients want an early recovery, minimal pain and the obvious cosmetic benefits offered by Minimal Access Surgery. This 3 day course will offer a basic grounding in Laparoscopy for Urologists and help them to get the confidence to start some of the Standard Laparoscopic urological Procedures in their own operating theaters.

Knot tying and suturing at Laparoscopic Surgery has been the “Achilles Heel” of novices and sometimes even of an “Advanced” Laparoscopic Surgeon. The course promises extensive training at this aspect with dedicated hours in the simulation as well as animate laboratories to polish one’s suturing skills.

A visit to operation theatre will enhance the confidence of the delegates after witnessing live surgeries and give them the confidence to overcome the difficulties in their own operating rooms.
