6th Medicon Course: Epiplating SystemSurgical Management of craniofacialdefects with implant-retainedprostheses (“epitheses”)

6th Medicon Course: Epiplating System
Dear collegues,The first extraoral application of osseointegrated titaniumimplants for craniofacial defects dates back more than threedecades. This event marked a great improvement in themanagement of craniofacial defects by bone-anchoredcraniofacial prostheses (“epistheses”). Since then,numerous efforts have been made to improve theapplicability and outcome in adverse anatomical situations.One result of the evolutionary process was the developmentof the Epiplating system by Medicon eG in collaborationwith Prof. P. Federspil, Ph. A. Federspil and M. Schneider. Itbasically consists of titanium miniplates adapted to theneeds of anaplastology. Over 15 years, the Epiplatingsystem proved to be very versatile, allowing to placeimplants in (almost) all defects. The aim of this course is togive a very practical insight in the Epiplating system. To beas interactive as possible, we limited the number of courseparticipants. Surgical approaches and implantation will bedemonstrated in the Department of Anatomy. Moreover, youwill assist surgical cases live in the OR next to the surgeon.Later in the dry lab, you will have the opportunity of bendingand handling the plates yourself.
We would be very happy to welcome you in Heidelberg forthis course.
