The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Comprehensive Surgical Approaches to the Skull Base: Indications for Open and Endoscopic Approaches in the Management of Complex Benign and Malignant Pathology Sept. 26-30, 2018 The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Microsurgical and Endoscopic Center for Clinical Applications Laboratory Baylor College of Medicine DeBakey Building 6450 E. Cullen Street Houston, Texas
Comprehensive Surgical Approaches to the Skull Base GOAL The goal of this activity is to improve the understanding regarding relative indication for open and endoscopic skull base approaches, improve anatomic understanding of the full spectrum of open and endoscopic skull base approaches needed to treat skull base pathology, improve understanding regarding the indications and goals for surgery in the management of skull base malignancies. This activity will include pre-recorded lectures on temporal bone and anterior/ anterolateral skull base. These lectures will be available for participants to review before the activity, to allow for optimal time in the cadaver labs. The live activity will consist of four and a half days of short didactic lectures (tumor boards) followed by a hands-on workshop. The workshop will allow participants to gain experience with dissections and watch demonstrations by experts in skull base tumors. Educational Objectives After attending the conference, participants should be able to: Evaluate the role of surgery within the context of multimodality care in the management of skull base malignancies. Assess the relative indications for endoscopic and open skull base approaches in the management of complex skull base pathology and implement them into practice. Understand the anatomical basis of various open and endoscopic skull base approaches in the management of malignant tumors of the anterior and anterolateral skull base. Target audience Neurosurgeons, head and neck surgeons, otolaryngologists, rhinologists, otologists and neuro-otologists. Educational methods Lecture Case Study Panel Discussion Hands-on Workshop Skills-Based Training Skills This course has been certified as a Level 2 course according to the AMA Guidelines on New Procedures and Skills Courses. Level 2 Course: Verification of satisfactory completion of course objectives: the physician satisfactorily met all specified learning objectives. Accreditation/ Credit Designation The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center designates this live activity for a maximum of 38.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. CME Certificates and Attendance Verification Certificates Certificates awarding AMA PRA Category 1 Credit or certificates documenting attendance will be distributed to participants when an individual departs the conference. To obtain a CME certificate, physicians must submit a completed evaluation questionnaire and a CME Verification Form. Upon request, a record of attendance (certificate) will be provided on-site to other health care professionals for requesting credits in accordance with state nursing boards, specialty societies, or other professional associations. Evaluation The activity evaluation will provide participants with the opportunity to comment on the value of the activity content to their practice decisions, performance improvement activities, or possible impact on patient health status. Participants will also have the opportunity to comment on any perceived commercial bias in the presentations as well as to identify future educational topics.
