Dear colleagues,

The ENDOMIN College team is pleased to announce the resumption of the hands-on activities with this new generation dissection course on advanced minimally invasive Neurosurgery. The course is dedicated to Neurosurgeons with interest in minimally invasive Neurosurgery. Basic experience in minimally invasive techniques is of help but not required. Didactically presented solutions will be simulated during extensive hands-on dissections and observed during transmitted live-surgeries from distinct international experts.
This and many practical hints will improve your skills, shorten your learning curve and avoid unnecessary complications in performing minimally invasive Neurosurgery.
Having past this course you will be able to discuss latest  technical and clinical advances in minimally invasive neurosurgery and use these techniques for a variety of indications in cranial and transnasal neurosurgery.
All events of the ENDOMIN College are approved by the Neuroendoscopy Committee of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS).

This event is offered in two complementary parts, which can be booked separately as well as in combination.

Part I is a low-cost theoretical event, hosted in Hungary`s legendary capital Budapest. International experts will present lectures on endoscopic and minimally invasive techniques in brain-, skull base and vascular neurosurgery as well as endoscopic ventricular and transnasal surgery.

Part II is hosted in the charming city Debrecen within the Hungarian “Puszta”. Here, a restricted number of participants will experience extensive hands-on dissections on fresh human specimens. Working on fresh human specimens is a world-wide unique opportunity and an unforgettable experience, particularly offered for experienced users.

The two course directors, Professor Nikolai Hopf and Professor Robert Reisch have been pupils of Professor Axel Perneczky, pioneer of endoscopic and minimal invasive neurosurgery, and have been using endoscopic techniques since their very beginning of neurosurgical training. They have conducted more than 100 international courses only within the last twenty years, teaching more than 1.000 international participants. They understand very well that integration of minimally invasive concepts into the daily surgical routine is not simple and requires a strong and stable strategy. Therefore, in this course the ENDOMIN team will teach you how to:

  • improve the daily routine.
  • shorten your learning curve.
  • avoid complications.
  • enhance your surgical and anatomical skills during extensive hands-on dissection on fresh human cadaver
  • apply minimally invasive neurosurgery during live surgeries transmitted from the University Hospital in Debrecen
