From Theory to Needle Holder: Videolaparoscopic Suturing in Practice

From Theory to Needle Holder: Videolaparoscopic Suturing in Practice

The course offers a hands-on immersion in videolaparoscopic suturing, combining an objective theoretical introduction to the principles of minimally invasive surgery, such as ergonomics, triangulation, and intracorporeal knot geometry, with supervised training on black box simulators and synthetic suture pads.

Students participate in progressive practical stations, focusing on visuomotor coordination, needle manipulation, and intracorporeal knot tying, approximating the dynamics and technical demands of real surgical practice.
