Course content
Many veterinary surgeons shy away from the challenge of surgery in this area, through a lack of anatomical knowledge. This combined lecture and practical based course aims to provide a logical approach to common problems of the head and neck, discussing how to investigate and manage these cases effectively. More challenging surgical procedures such as laryngeal tieback and total canal ablation/bulla osteotomy will be covered in detail. The common pitfalls with these surgeries will also be discussed with tips on how to avoid them. 50% of the course time will be devoted to the delegates mastering the surgical procedures for themselves.
