PREFACE

Dear Sir or Madam,

We are very pleased to invite you to the training course "FESS and Anterior Skull Base" at the IRDC in Leipzig.

As with all IRDC training courses, it is also held under the motto "Focusing on the Essentials". We have consciously chosen a different path on which we left out all lectures on introductory and general topics.

We concentrate on standard operating procedures (SOP), possible exceptional circumstances (exceptional handling). We also present the possibilities of the surgical cockpit for concrete access and discuss tips & tricks from experienced experts. Theoretical and practical exercises alternate in a 2 hour cycle. The functions of the surgical cockpit of the III generation as well as the surgical knowledge and know-how are at the core of the training.

Premium experts from all over the world guarantee a unique wealth of experience. The continually further developed didactic training concept of the IRDC Training Academy promises an enormous growth of knowledge in an absolutely entertaining atmosphere.

We wish you a warm welcome to Leipzig!

Leipzig is well-known for its industrial fair, the Leipziger Messe. In fact, the fi rst tradeexposition was held in 1190, making Leipzig one of the world’s oldest fair towns. It isalso a cultural hub thanks to German composers Johann Sebastian Bach and FelixMendelssohn Bartholdy who worked in the Saxon city.In 1989 Leipzig Eastern German civil opposition started the so-called MondayDemonstrations, which became a public symbol of criticism of the political systemand ultimately led to the collapse of the German Democratic Republic and thereunifi cation of Germany. Today the city of 508,000 inhabitants is still famous as atrade fair town, as the site of Germany’s second oldest universities, and as one ofthe country’s greenest towns – approximately 50% of it is covered by parks,gardens or woods. The Leipzig University celebrated its 600th anniversary in 2009. One can visit many historic and very modern sites of this excellent scientifi c place.
