Dear Colleagues and Friends!
Our next Facial Palsy anatomical course will take place from September 20th to 22nd, 2021 at Anatomy Institute, Medical University of Vienna, Austria.

Facial Palsy 2021 will be completely refreshed and adapted to today's challenges.

Due to current Covid19 regulations, thirty “hands-on” Onsite Participation in Vienna, Austria are allowed.
This course is designed for surgeons with an interest in advanced reconstruction of facial nerve injuries and facial paralysis, with the aim of providing direct experience of the most advanced surgical techniques, including nerve reconstruction procedures, facial reanimation with muscle transfers and ancillary procedures.

We have arranged an exciting, three-day intensive educational program (onsite: 2 surgeons as one team for head and leg) involving hands-on dissection and practical lectures on surgical techniques of facial nerve reconstruction in a step-by-step manner. The topics include free and pedicle muscle transfer for facial reanimation and complementary procedures for facial symmetrization and eye closure. The structure of the course is based on practical lectures followed by hands-on practice with cadavers. Lectures with a focus on clinical applications and examples of each technique will conclude the presented techniques.

We believe that this course will be not only an exchange of knowledge today, but also an opportunity for networking, knowledge exchange and collaboration in the future. Therefore, we have planned a social program that includes an informal gathering on Thursday and a more formal dinner on Friday.

We look forward to working with you and welcoming you to Vienna!
