Zurich Microsurgery Course 2024
This course by Dr. Giuseppe Esposito is suitable for surgeons working with microsurgical techniques, microsutures and microanastomoses. Participants will be able to practice basic microsurgical techniques such as dissection of arteries and veins using a placenta model.
