Aims and Objectives
|
This masterclass builds core knowledge and practical skills in managing stone disease with minimally invasive endourological techniques. Participants will learn the basics of renal access, scope handling, and stone manipulation, while gaining a 3D understanding of renal anatomy for accurate calyceal access using fluoroscopy and ultrasound. The course covers key procedural steps for PCNL, URS, and ECIRS, and includes hands-on simulation training for scope control, stone fragmentation, and retrieval.
Learning Objectives - Address the basics of renal access, scope, and stone manipulation
- Get an all-encompassing orientation of the renal anatomy and develop a 3D understanding of how the calyx is approached using the initial puncture needle with the help of fluoroscopy and ultrasound.
- Identify the how to do approach of different endourological procedures PCNL, URS and ECIRS. Practice scope manipulation, stone pulverization and pickup on simulators
