1 Workshop Design Objectives The workshop is designed to provide and enhance the laparoscopic surgeon’s knowledge of reduced port / single port access surgery. Course attendees will participate in didactic and hands-on sessions to facilitate this working knowledge. At the conclusion of the course, the participant will have a broad understanding of the following approaches as they relate to: - Adoption of reduced port techniques (including single port access surgery) - Techniques of accessing the abdomen for reduced port surgery - Reduced port/single port access cholecystectomy - An understanding of the safety and applications of reduced port surgery Design This is a single day, hands-on workshop. For the didactic course, the facility has state-of-the-art audio/visual equipment. For the hands on training, there will be 4 cadaver stations each with its own video tower. There will be two to three participants at each of the four stations.

Before beginning his work at CMMC, Dr. Loggins completed a fellowship in minimally invasive and robotic surgery at the University of California Davis Medical Center in Sacramento, California. Dr. Loggins earned his medical degree at Northwestern University Medical School in Chicago. Dr. Loggins began performing reduced port/single port surgery in 2007 and has performed Single Port operations on a wide range of patients, including those suffering from morbid obesity. Guest Instructor: Paul G Curcillo II, MD, FACS Vice Chairman, Dept of Surgery Director, Robotic & Minimal Access Surgery Drexel University College of Medicine, Philadelphia (pgc@curcillo.com) In 2001, Dr. Curcillo developed and published a two port technique for laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. Performing over 200 cases with this technique, he applied the principles of reduced port surgery to other procedures as well. Continuing the move to reducing port sites for Minimal Access Surgery, in April 2007, Dr. Curcillo, along with Dr. Stephanie King, developed and performed the first Single Port Access (SPA) surgical procedures. The first SPA cholecystectomy was done in May 2007. Since then, Drs. Curcillo and King have performed over 300 SPA procedures using all standard instrumentation. Dr. Curcillo has developed a “step-wise” training approach for surgeons to work their way toward Single Port Access surgery safely, with confidence and at less costs than multiport surgery. Using this technique, he has run training symposiums for SPA surgery throughout the world, and has successfully trained many surgeons on this novel technique.
