Course description: This is a practical workshop to gain knowledge and practical skills on management of complex aortic pathology using complex open and hybrid vascular techniques and revascularisations. Total endovascular repair is not feasible for all-comers with complex aortic pathology or with sever comorbid conditions – from conditions involving aortic arch to juxtarenal or extensive aortoiliac pathology or renal anomaly vascularisations.   Through case based discussion, informative lectures, video presentations and hands on models practicing this workshop will provide moderate to advanced experience to its participants. Aortic debranching procedures (proximal, visceral), renal revascularisation, juxtarenal and thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair will be covered in this particular workshop.
