Hands-On Cadaveric & Simulation Training

Two dedicated cadaveric days — vaginal procedures on pelvises, then abdominal and retroperitoneal procedures on trunks — followed by a scientific day of lectures, live robotic dissection and an abstract competition, with industry simulation stations throughout.

About the Course

Two Cadaveric Days, One Scientific Day

The course is built as two full cadaveric days followed by a scientific day. Day 1 works through the vaginal repertoire on four pelvises — midurethral slings, sacrospinous vaginal suspension, and vesicovaginal, rectovaginal and obstetric anal sphincter injury repair. Day 2 moves to four trunks for retroperitoneal dissection and ureterolysis, sacro-colpopexy, Burch colposuspension and the principles of lower urinary tract injury repair.

Eight candidate places and eight observer places are offered. Candidates stay with their assigned specimen and the instructors rotate to them hourly, so every candidate completes all four procedures of the day without leaving their bench. Day 3 is the scientific programme: regulation and practice in Saudi Arabia, a live robotic cadaveric dissection, technology and pain sessions, surgeon wellbeing, and the three winning abstracts.

The programme is directed by a scientific committee of Dr. Jawaher Alsahabi, Dr. Ashraf Dawood and Dr. Faisal Alturki, with national faculty and one international guest speaker, hosted at the College of Medicine, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh.

"Four cadavers, four procedures, one hour each — the candidates stay at the bench and the expertise comes to them."

Course Features

How the Laboratory Is Run

  • 01

    Eight Cadaveric Stations Over Two Days

    Four vaginal stations on pelvises and four abdominal stations on trunks — eight procedures, each taught in a dedicated hour.

  • 02

    Candidates Stay, Instructors Rotate

    Eight candidates and eight observers take part across the hands-on programme. On Day 2, each station has two candidates and one observer; the faculty carry their procedure from bench to bench.

  • 03

    Industry Simulation Circuit

    Dedicated simulation stations for vNOTES, urethral bulking agents, percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation and sacral neuromodulation.

  • 04

    A Scientific Day, Not Just a Lab

    Live robotic cadaveric dissection, technology and pelvic pain sessions, surgeon wellbeing, and an abstract competition judged by the scientific committee.
