Course on Robotic Abdomino - Pelvic Surgery
Course Directors: Fabrizio Luca, Director, Unit of Integrated Abdominal Surgery, IEO - Paolo P. Bianchi, Director, Unit of Minimally Invasive Surgery, IEO

Objectives of the Course

This scientific program is designed to provide surgeons with extensive and up-to-date knowledge in the field of roboticgeneral surgery.

The program is intended for the training of both surgeons interested in learning the basic principles and techniques, and fully-trained surgeons willing to expand their robotic surgical activity.
At the end of this course, participants should be able to:
- become familiar with the function and operation of the robotic surgical system
- understand the rationale behind patient positioning and surgical approaches
- describe the standard robotic port placement and variations for performing various robotic abdomino-pelvic surgical procedures
- recognize the anatomical markers necessary for performing these procedures.
- review the basic technical aspects of robotic general surgery and be able to describe the sequence of steps required to perform various robotic surgical procedures
