Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide students with the knowledge of head and neck surgical anatomy. Anatomy has been rediscovered thanks to the use of the endoscopic instrumentation. The use of endoscope has enabled the exploration of hidden areas not otherwise visible by common microscopic techniques. The knowledge of a more complex anatomy is fundamental for some pathophysiological concepts understanding and their surgical management.
