Maximum number of participants: 10-15

Duration: 1,5 days

Course fee: on request

Course objective:  Effective treatment of vascular diseases of all kinds (PAD, aortic aneurysms, vascular malformations etc.) requires an interdisciplinary work-up including vascular surgery, interventional radiology and angiology. The treatment of below the knee PAD illustrates this paradigm appropriately.

Based on evidence based medicine, an individualised and interdisciplinary treatment concept should be aimed. However, due to several reasons, this is not reality in most hospitals. To overcome this nuisance, intense knowledge about treatment concepts (of the own medical subdivision as well as of the others) with their pros and cons is necessary together with an understanding of associated comorbidities and their impact on treatment. Sound knowledge is needed to establish interdisciplinary treatment concepts.

This course aims to transfer knowledge and strategic concepts for the development of interdisciplinary treatment concepts for patients with PAD.

Experts in the fields of vascular surgery, interventional radiology and angiology will give short lectures to communicate the present evidence. Main focus will be the guided discussion of cases in the setting of a simulated vascular board conference with all participants. Contributions of case-studies by the participants are explicitly encouraged.

 

Major target group: Surgeons and radiologists experienced in treating patients with HCC.

This course can be adapted to individual needs of e.g. hospitals and practitioners.
