The Medicity offers a comprehensive 14-day hands-on laparoscopic training program exclusively tailored for general surgeons. This intensive course provides an immersive learning experience, combining theoretical knowledge, simulated practice, and real-world surgical exposure. Led by India’s top surgical professionals, including the esteemed Dr. (Prof.) AK Kriplani, this program is meticulously structured to ensure participants gain unparalleled expertise in minimally invasive surgical techniques.

Training sessions are held daily from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering 11 hours of rigorous, focused education. The curriculum seamlessly integrates theoretical lectures, dry and vet lab sessions, and live animal surgery procedures, culminating in real Operating Theatre (OT)/Operating Room (OR) experience on alternate days. This blend of learning modalities ensures participants master the critical skills necessary for laparoscopic procedures.

The training emphasizes core laparoscopic techniques, including knotting and suturing methods such as the laparoscopic extracorporeal Weston knot, surgeon’s knot, and advanced intracorporeal techniques. Participants also refine their skills in tissue retrieval, port closure, and practical drills such as paper cutting, cobra rope exercises, and simulated tasks designed to mimic real surgical challenges.

As part of the program, participants will perform live animal surgeries to develop precision and confidence in a controlled environment. Procedures include laparoscopic cholecystectomy, appendicectomy, hernia repair, nephrectomy, splenectomy, and more, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of diverse laparoscopic techniques. Additionally, participants will gain exposure to commonly performed surgeries on human patients based on demand, such as laparoscopic abdominal wall reconstruction, sleeve gastrectomy, Nissen fundoplication, and minimally invasive procedures for hemorrhoids.

Under the expert guidance of seasoned mentors, participants will actively engage in real OT/OR sessions, observing and assisting in live surgeries. These sessions offer invaluable opportunities for skill enhancement, real-time decision-making, and patient interaction, preparing participants for complex surgical scenarios.

The Medicity’s state-of-the-art facilities, dedicated wet labs, and expert faculty provide an unmatched platform for professional growth. Upon successful completion, participants receive a prestigious certification, highlighting their proficiency in advanced laparoscopic surgery.
