EVENT DESCRIPTION

The landscape of paediatric neurosurgery is shifting rapidly, requiring not just technical operative brilliance, but highly integrated, cross-disciplinary care. This rejuvenated masterclass is designed to bridge the gap between core clinical training and advanced, holistic subspecialisation.

Recognising that optimal patient outcomes depend on a cohesive multidisciplinary team, this course is open to both neurosurgeons and advanced nursing professionals. Led by a respected faculty of neurosurgeons, specialist nurses, neuro-oncologists, and allied experts, the masterclass combines state-of-the-art lectures, interactive case panels, and surgical step-by-steps. Together, we will dive deep into the 'grey zones' of clinical decision-making, intraoperative crises, perioperative nursing pathways, and long-term holistic care for the child and family.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

To deliver a high-yield, multidisciplinary update on core paediatric neurosurgical conditions, combining advanced clinical decision-making and complication management with professional career development for both surgeons and nursing teams.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Define treatment thresholds for neonatal PHH, decisions in temporizing and permanent shunting, and review of long-term outcomes.

• Improve recognition and referral pathways and translate specialist techniques (managing major blood loss and large approaches) into general practice.

• Update knowledge on molecular tumour classifications and trials, and master 'disaster management' for third ventricle and suprasellar approaches.

• Prepare senior candidates for FRCS exam requirements, mock Vivas, and consultant interviews.

• Demystify surgical neuroanatomy, navigate complex decision-making, and review emerging surgical technologies.

• Implement evidence-based protocols to prevent and manage shunt infections, empyema, and complex cranioplasties.
