Endovascular & Open Surgery — Session 1
9 September – 11 September 2026 · 3 days · eXplora - 2 rue Marie Hamm 67000 Strasbourg, Strasbourg
Overview
Endovascular & Open Surgery — Session 1
Master vascular suturing techniques and endovascular procedures through an intensive simulation-based programme, with individual performance assessment and a personalised report.
Learning objectives
- Understand the role of simulation in vascular surgery.
- Acquire & refine aortic (3/0 & 4/0) and smaller (6/0) TT/TL anastomosis techniques using various simulators.
- Improve smoothness, regularity & speed in vascular suturing.
- Plan surgical interventions using sizing techniques.
- Manipuler les dispositifs médicaux en toute sécurité.
- Simulate vascular and endovascular procedures.
