In this course we will discuss wound healing, how to manage open wounds and skin reconstruction techniques. You will then be able to practise and consolidate the theoretical knowledge in the wet lab. The cadaver workshops will include excision of common skin masses, tension relieving techniques, subdermal pattern flaps, axial pattern flaps and skin grafts. This course will give you the confidence to customise your approach for each patient helping you to utilise wound management and skin reconstruction techniques to get those terrifying wounds under control.
Participants will receive the first two chapters (Anatomy of the Skin and Wound Healing) approximately two weeks prior to the course. These chapters constitute assumed knowledge for the workshop, and participants are strongly advised to review them in advance.
Lee is a surgical specialist based at ARC in Auckland. He graduated from The Royal Veterinary College (RVC) in 2011 and spent 2 years working at a Charity small animal practice before completing his internship and residency at the RVC. He stayed on to become a lecturer before moving to Massey University to work as a senior lecturer in small animal surgery. He moved to Auckland to work in private practice in early 2023.
Lee has a keen interest in all aspects but particularly surgery soft tissue surgery and is passionate about passing on as much of his experience as he can. He particularly enjoys more complex abdominal surgeries and the challenge of managing large open wounds.
He moved from Palmerston North with his partner and two dogs. He tries to get to the gym a couple of times a week to offset his love of cake but since moving to Auckland he seems to be losing the battle.
Wound management and skin reconstruction is an everyday part of general practice, be it traumatic wounds or following tumour resection.
