You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Develop a systematic approach to biopsy, staging and surgical margin selection for head and neck tumours.
• Plan and perform advanced oral and facial oncologic procedures, including mandibulectomy, maxillectomy, nasal planectomy, and eyelid and lip resection.
• Apply reconstructive techniques, including axial and advancement flaps, using relevant anatomical landmarks.
• Perform thyroidectomy, parathyroidectomy and cervical lymph node extirpation using appropriate ventral neck approaches.
• Develop comprehensive peri-operative care plans, including analgesia and management of post-operative complications.
• Evaluate tumour prognosis and integrate adjuvant therapies through evidence-based decision-making and real-life clinical cases.

This is a wet-lab rich experience. Look forward to  performing basic mandibulectomy and maxillectomy techniques in one of many relevant and competency-driven hands-on practicals.

You don’t need to have carried out these procedures already to attend – the whole aim is to get you doing them!
