The four-day course of systematic presentation of head and neck oncology focuses on current concepts in surgery, radiation oncology and medical oncology. The programme includes lectures, workshops, active cadaver preparations and life surgery. The course delivers current knowledge about standard procedures and controversies in head and neck oncology like adjuvant treatment, induction chemotherapy, organ preservation and de-escalation concepts in HPV positive oropharyngeal cancer. Furthermore, functional aspects and surgical/phoniatric rehabilitation will be addressed. Participants are integrated in active interdisciplinary discussions. Teaching in cadaver resections includes systematic in neck dissection, laryngeal partial resection techniques and surgery and approaches to different sites of head and neck. The course will therefore deliver concepts and raise awareness of evidence-based modern head and neck oncology.
