learning and improving patients' lives.
AOSpine Principles Specimen Course
Welcome to Muttenz
Dear colleagues
It is a great pleasure to invite you to this AOSpine Principles Specimen Course.
The course is targeted for young neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons with 1 to 3 years
experience. It focuses on the basic principles and techniques of posterior approaches to the
spine, decompression and instrumentation as well as anterior cervical spine approaches
and instrumentation.
A distinguished faculty of neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons will guide you through
the different tasks.
The course will be held at the new AMTS (Academy for Medical Training and Simulation)
in Muttenz close to Basel which is well equipped and offers ideal requirements for a
successful event.
Sincerely
Oliver Hausmann

AOSpine Curriculum
This educational event carries the AOSpine Curriculum logo. This indicates that the program,
content, and objectives have been developed based on the Curriculum framework and that
the event meets the implementation criteria defined by the AOSpine Education Commission
(AOSEC). For more information, visit www.aospine.org
Course Description
This course is divided in two parts: The first half day will consist of lectures offering the
theoretical background for the practicals. During the second day, practical sessions will be
arranged around eight cadaveric specimens with a maximum 3 participants per station. Table
demonstrators will be closely involved in helping candidates achieving their educational goals.
Target Participants
This course is aimed at junior neurosurgeons as well as orthopedic surgeons with an
established interest in spinal surgery. Spinal fellows at the beginning of their fellowship may
also apply for this course.
Course Objectives
At the end of this course participants should be able to perform in a structured stepwise
manner:
• Midline posterior approach of the spine as well as far lateral lumbar appraoch.
• Posterior decompression of the spine including laminectomy and cross over decompression
technique.
• Pedicle instrumentation of the thoracic and lumbar spine.
• Posterior instrumentation of the cervical spine an cervicothoracic junction.
• Anterior approach of the cervical spine.
• Anterior discectomy and fusion of the cervical spine.
