COURSE PRESENTATIONIn the �eld of General Surgery, the most relevant technical improvement in the last 100 years wasthe emergence of laparoscopic surgery in the 1980s and robotic surgery already in the 21stcentury. Despite the great advances achieved, this technical progress is not widespread yet - indeed, almost all surgical procedures in several �elds, including surgical oncology, are performed by minimally invasive approach in centres of excellence only.

The course Minimally Invasive Surgery in General Surgery: Laparoscopy and Robotics, with twomodules, It aims to bring together the most experienced and renowned laparoscopic and robotic world-class surgeons in a state-of-the-art forum, with the ultimate goal of meeting training needs in this area.

Module 2 is entirely practical and will be carried out with small groups, on the basis of �exibleschedules. It includes: personal orientation training and solo free training, with endotrainer andlaparoscopic/robotic simulator; and follow-up of surgical procedures in hospital environment.Attendance of Module 1 is a precondition for enrolment in Module 2.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES >> KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS TO DEVELOPTo know and to be able to use the main equipment and surgical instruments and devicesavailable for laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

To know and to be able to describe the risks and dangers associated with the equipmentand surgical instruments and devices used in laparoscopic and robotic surgery; to know how to prevent such risks and mitigate them should they materialize.

To be able to perform with self-su�ciency the tasks consigned for trainingin the "gymnasium of videoendoscopic surgery" and observed in the surgicalprocedures followed:

>> Laparoscopy: suture, dissection, camera control, spatial orientation,instrument selection and handling, ports placement, patient positioning;

>> Robotics: all the aforementioned for laparoscopy, control console commands,docking, compensation training of the loss of haptic feedback by visual perception.
