Why attend this workshop?
This practically oriented workshop promotes an interdisciplinary exchange among all disciplines and encourages all participants to present different approaches to 1) early compression therapy, 2) different dressing fixation techniques in challenging body locations and 3) a special focus on challenges when we treat the face. We start with a theoretical introduction followed by different learning skill stations to practice the skills hands on and to learn from each other and with each other. The workshop will include practicing the techniques and skills on each other.
For whom?
All burn care professionals with the desire to learn about treating wounds. No prior skill or experience is needed.

Functional and Aesthetic Reconstruction of the face: from grafts to transplants and beyond
Julien Verdier, France | Delphine Vouilliaume, France | Jean Michel Rives, France | Juan Barret, Spain | Andrew Lindford, Finland | Thomas Leclerc, France | Arthur Caplan, United Kingdom
Common session SFB and EBA.
This session will be translated from English to French and from French to English.
The functional and aesthetic reconstruction of the face is a complex and multifaceted field involving various techniques and approaches. From autologous tissue graft and allograft reconstructive surgery to face transplantation and the possibilities offered by new technologies. Multiple options are now available to enhance a person’s appearance and restore their facial form and function. Short and long-term sequelae and ethical and psychological issues should either be considered to choose the best option for the patient.
