Course Presentation

The Human Cadaveric Advanced (HUCAD) Laparoscopic and Robotic Urology course is an innovative course for surgical training.

This 4-day course will provide a surgical experience that is the closest possible to reality. The programme will cover a wide range of techniques of urological laparoscopy surgery.

This is a unique course, because participants will have the opportunity to practice real laparoscopic surgery on embalmed cadavers, and feel what they should expect in real surgery.

Hands-on practice

During the course, each participant will have an opportunity to get ‘hands-on’ experience in various
laparoscopic techniques under the supervision of experienced tutors. 

This course is limited to 18 participants with previous basic laparoscopy skills, divided by 6
operating room tables (3 per table).
