Abstract
The “Introduction and Training of Minimally Invasive Surgery” Workshop aims to provideknowledge and practical skills in the field of minimally invasive surgical techniques. Minimally invasive surgery has revolutionized the way surgical procedures are performed, offering patients numerous benefits such as reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times.
This workshop will cover fundamental concepts, with participants engaging in hands-on training sessions using simulators and surgical equipment. Additionally, a visit to the operation rooms and insight into real surgical procedures is possible.
