This access course covers key surgical approaches to the hip joint, acetabulum, and pelvis, including ilioinguinal, iliofemoral, anterior, and anterolateral access routes. Using real specimens, residents will refine their incision techniques and navigation of critical anatomical structures. Under expert guidance from Balgrist University Hospital, participants will gain hands-on experience, preparing them for complex pelvic and hip surgeries.

To support preparation, all participants gain access to the Augmedi E-Learning platform upon registration. With photorealistic 3D models and an AI-powered learning engine, the platform helps deepen anatomical knowledge and track progress before the hands-on sessions.
