36th Hands-on Dissection & Instructional Course (Barcelona)

This course trains young spine surgeons in basic approaches, decompression, and instrumentation techniques for the cervical spine and its junctional zones, from the occiput to the high thoracic spine. We intend to train surgical skills in the approach and the basic principles of surgical access and safe hardware placement. The course will combine lectures and detailed 'hands-on' surgical instruction. The faculty, comprising highly experienced CSRS-Europe members and board members, will present short lectures on various topics to explain the steps of anatomical preparation and safe surgical techniques for the cervical spine.
