To learn more about the MIS Lateral Platform, DePuy Spine is offering introductory and advanced lateral approach professional education courses. The Concepts in Lateral Approach Surgery course is designed specifically for spine surgeons who have little or no experience with the lateral approach for interbody fusion, and who are interested in adding this technique to their armamentarium. This course will include hands-on practical lab workshops focusing on lateral approach surgery and minimally invasive spine surgery. Case discussions and a variety of faculty-led lectures will supplement the workshop. Course dates are August 28th in Las Vegas, September 10 in Chicago, or October 22 in San Francisco.

The Advanced Lateral Approach Tutorials provide surgeons a unique opportunity to advance their education and training through extended time with thought leaders in lateral approach surgery. The one-and-a-half day tutorial includes live surgery observation, and a hands-on practical workshop. Course Dates are September 16-17 in Baltimore, MD.
