Dear Colleagues,

in response to the considerable demand with a limited number of participants, we are pleased to confirm the continuation of the International Mastercourse Hamburg in 2025.

Functional reconstruction of the middle ear remains a daily challenge for Otologists, where the choice of materials, tissues, and protheses plays an important role in clinical outcome. The course will focus on the individual optimization of PORP, TORP and Stapes prostheses, presented through interactive lectures and in-depth discussions. Furthermore, you will be joining live ear-surgeries (through online transmission from UKE), hosted by our top surgeons and experts, who will gladly take your questions and give first-hand insight into current operating techniques. In the practical part of the course - the hands-on experience - participants will train on anatomical models and acquire a deeper understanding of the acoustic results of various reconstructive methods.

We are honored to welcome leading experts to this year's course:             Prof. Topsakal (Malle/Belgium), Prof. Mlynski (Rostock/Germany),                      Prof. Neudert (Dresden/Germany)

The vibrant city of Hamburg, home to Germany's largest seaport, invites you to discover its rich cultural scene and outstanding culinary delights.

We look forward to hosting you and sharing an inspiring experience in Hamburg.

Prof. C.S. Betz                        Prof. M. Praetorius
