This two-day course provides a progressive step-by-step dissection of the temporal bone using a thiel embalmed cadaveric prosection.

A competency based training manual has been devised so trainees can complete 10-12 dissections on one cadaveric Temporal Bone in a self-paced, structured manner, under direct supervision of Otological Trainers. Our curriculum is mapped to the ISCP and the dissections performed can be used for PBA (procedure based assessment).

This course covers:

  • Myringoplasty
  • Ossiculoplasty
  • Tympanoplasty
  • Stapedectomy
  • Attico-antrostomy
  • Mastoidectomy
  • Labyrinthectomy
  • Internal auditory canal exploration
  • Endolymphatic sac decompression
  • Facial nerve decompression
  • Jugular fossa exploration

Includes pre-course learning materials and an attendance certificate.
