Debridement and Management of Open Fractures in Combat Trauma
1:06:11

Debridement and Management of Open Fractures in Combat Trauma

A practical lecture on open fractures and combat wounds, centered on meticulous debridement, infection prevention, temporary stabilization, soft-tissue coverage, and real clinical cases.

Diagnosis and Minimally Invasive Management of Combat Esophageal Injuries
31:34

Diagnosis and Minimally Invasive Management of Combat Esophageal Injuries

A practical review of combat-related esophageal injuries, from early diagnostic suspicion and CT trajectory analysis to endoscopy, thoracoscopy, laparoscopy, and minimally invasive repair in carefully selected patients.

Combat-Related Heart Injuries
1:29:00

Combat-Related Heart Injuries

A practical lecture on combat-related cardiac trauma: evacuation priorities, diagnostic pitfalls, operative access, myocardial repair, and the difficult decisions surrounding intracardiac foreign bodies.

Back to basic or what we Didn`t know about Radiation Fibrosis?
38:37

Back to basic or what we Didn`t know about Radiation Fibrosis?

A back-to-basics look at radiation fibrosis: from inflammation and TGF-β signaling to fibroblast activation, extracellular matrix accumulation, hypoxia, and impaired matrix turnover. The lecture also explores how changes in radiotherapy fractionation may influence late tissue damage.

Role 1 and Role 2: Scope, Requirements, Challenges and Opportunities
1:47:48

Role 1 and Role 2: Scope, Requirements, Challenges and Opportunities

Frontline experience of organizing Role 1 and Role 2 trauma care when evacuation takes hours, resources are limited, and patient flow can change within minutes. The speakers examine triage, hemorrhage control, blood transfusion, surgical limits, mass-casualty workflows, evacuation, and the decisions that determine whether an intervention helps or only delays definitive care.

Surgical Management of Carotid Artery Injuries
1:09:35

Surgical Management of Carotid Artery Injuries

A practical lecture on carotid artery injuries in combat trauma: surgical exposure, damage-control decisions, temporary shunting, ligation, reconstruction, stroke prevention, and the realities of care across Role 2–4.

Post-Traumatic Lymphedema - Comprehensive Approach and Microsurgical Treatment
1:03:36

Post-Traumatic Lymphedema - Comprehensive Approach and Microsurgical Treatment

How reconstructive surgery can restore not only soft tissue, but also lymphatic flow after limb trauma.

“When a Scalpel Is Not Enough: The Role of Lasers in Modern Plastic Surgery”  Can lasers change the outcome when repeat surgery is no longer the best option?
46:23

“When a Scalpel Is Not Enough: The Role of Lasers in Modern Plastic Surgery” Can lasers change the outcome when repeat surgery is no longer the best option?

How laser therapy can be used to modify scar texture, pigmentation and vascular components, and why treatment should begin with identifying the right tissue target rather than choosing a laser first.

Neurosurgical Care for Combat-Related Head Injuries at Forward Surgical Facilities
54:24

Neurosurgical Care for Combat-Related Head Injuries at Forward Surgical Facilities

A field-based discussion of neurosurgical decision-making for severe combat head injuries: patient selection, CT-guided planning, penetrating brain wounds, hemorrhage control, wound debridement, dural repair, evacuation priorities, and the limits of damage-control neurosurgery.

Novel Topical Anaesthesia for rapid wound numbing and prolonged analgesia for open wounds
1:02:13

Novel Topical Anaesthesia for rapid wound numbing and prolonged analgesia for open wounds

A practical discussion of a topical anaesthetic designed to rapidly numb open wounds while providing prolonged analgesia and antimicrobial activity, with potential applications in trauma and military medicine.

Computer-Assisted Head and Neck Surgery: Principles, Techniques and Clinical Outcome
1:03:30

Computer-Assisted Head and Neck Surgery: Principles, Techniques and Clinical Outcome

A case-driven lecture on computer-assisted head and neck surgery, from virtual planning and 3D-printed guides to intraoperative navigation, craniofacial reconstruction and immediate functional rehabilitation. Computer-assisted surgery is presented here not as a single piece of technology, but as a complete clinical workflow: 3D imaging and segmentation, virtual surgical planning, transfer of the plan with printed models or cutting guides, intraoperative navigation, and postoperative imaging for feedback and refinement.

Primary Reconstruction of Open Hand Injuries in Children: Principles and Tactics
1:15:25

Primary Reconstruction of Open Hand Injuries in Children: Principles and Tactics

A practical lecture on primary reconstruction of pediatric hand injuries, with a focus on local and regional flaps, preservation of finger length and function, and strategies to reduce contracture risk.
