Our mission is to continuously set standards in postgraduate medical education and to foster the sharing of medically guided expertise in a worldwide network of healthcare professionals to improve patient care in trauma or disorders of the musculoskeletal system.

On behalf of AOCMF, your local and international faculty, I would like to welcome you to this AOCMF course.

AOCMF is a worldwide multi-specialty community that serves as the voice and professional resource for craniomaxillofacial trauma and reconstruction. Our organization creates a forum for specialists who have common interests and enthusiasm in this field. It is our goal to encourage and inspire younger surgeons, such as residents, fellows, and early practitioners to pursue fulfilling careers in our field.

Education has always been a major pillar in AOCMF. Currently, more than 2500 surgeons participate in over 80 AOCMF courses worldwide per year. AOCMF Education is committed to remaining in the forefront of education and new developments, which we hope will improve your educational experience with us.

We hope that your experiences with us over the next few days will result in the acquisition of new knowledge, skills and understanding which will translate into an improvement in the care that you are able to give your patients.

We also hope that as a result of this course you will wish to develop a longer term relationship with AOCMF by becoming a member of our organization. Make this organization yours and bring in your opinions and ideas. Enjoy the camaraderie of our network and help us maintain and expand the preeminent position that AOCMF enjoys worldwide.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Colleagues

It gives us a great pleasure to welcome all of you to AO Craniomaxillofacial Educational Events in Asia Pacific. AOCMF Asia Pacific is composed of thirteen countries in the Asia Pacific region. We are very pleased to conduct courses, workshops and seminars of high quality in Asia Pacific. Our ultimate goal is to serve our patients by the teaching of current and tested treatment concepts in caniomaxillofacial practice. All colleagues regardless of sub-specialty or country of origin are equally welcome.

We would like to thank the entire international, regional and local faculty for the time they have taken to make such an event a reality. Last but not least, we would also like to thank our colleagues from Synthes, our major industrial partners. Without their support, this educational event would not be conducted so smoothly.

I hope you, our dear participants, enjoy this event and make new friends. Moreover, I also hope that you take home useful information from our lectures and hands-on workshops.

Yours sincerely,


Technological advances are revolutionarizing surgical disciplines. The inter-related fields of head and neck, cranio-maxillo-facial, otolaryngology and neurosurgery have taken a lead in this area, particularly to navigate complex anatomy and for the aesthetic and functional restoration and reconstruction of defects of the region. In the rapidly modernizing medical system of India, these surgical adjuncts are now increasingly being accessible in many medical institutions. Understanding the fundamentals of these technologies and acquiring skills through hands-on training are essential to take advantage and keep up-to-date in the field.

The “AOCMF Advanced Innovations Symposium and Workshop on Technologic Advances in Head and Neck and Craniofacial Surgery” for the first time in India, brings together pioneers in the fields from around the world for the benefit of practicing clinicians in the Indian subcontinent and Asia-Pacific region. The faculty will consist of internationally renowned surgeons, technologists, scientists and industrial partners. The four-day intensive course and workshop will have six major components: 1. Basics of image processing, 2. Advances in tissue engineering in head and neck reconstruction, 3. Surgical simulation, 4. Intra-operative navigation, 5. Endoscopic and robotic surgery and 6. opportunity for hands-on training for selected participants.

The workshop is being organized under the auspices of AOCMF of the international AO Foundation based in Switzerland, the Advanced Digital Technology (ADT) Foundation in Head and Neck Reconstruction and Mazumdar-Shaw Cancer Center, Narayana Health City, Bangalore and supported by industrial partners Synthes, Brainlab and Materialize.

At the conclusion of the didactic part of the course, the participant should be able to:a. Understand current knowledge regarding computer-aided surgical planning and intra-operative navigation in the field of cranio-maxillofacial surgery.b. Display basic principles of image-processing and tissue engineeringc. Identify appropriate applications for computer-aided pre-surgical planning and intra-operative navigation for treatment of traumatic, neoplastic and congenital diseasesd. Discuss the current utility of robotic and endoscopic surgery in the head and neck and craniofacial region.

At the conclusion of the hands-on part of the course, the participant should be able to:e. Demonstrate the psychomotor skills necessary to perform both pre-surgical planning and intra-operative navigationf. Generate a pre-surgical plan using computer-aided planning softwareg. Apply intra-operative navigation to guide tumor resection and cranio-facial reconstruction and hardware placementh. Evaluate the applicability of computer-aided techniques when analyzing postoperative results and outcome analysis
