1st Course in Elbow Arthroscopy on fresh cadaveric specimens

The 1st Orthopaedic Department of Aristotles University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) of “G. Papanikolaou” General Hospital, shall organize for the first time in Greece, the Seminar entitled “1st Course in Elbow Arthroscopy on fresh cadaveric specimens” which will be preceded by the “3rd Seminar of Tendon Transfers of the upper limb on fresh cadaveric specimens”, which has been already organized successfully with a large number of participants.

The surgery of the elbow is a rapidly evolving field in orthopedic surgery. The arthroscopic technique which has dramatically changed the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to a broad range of diseases has been extended in recent years in this field too. The arthroscopic elbow surgery has become increasingly popular in the orthopedic community, providing safe and effective solutions in the armamentarium of the modern surgeon. The program, with the involvement of internationally acclaimed trainers, promises to offer a complete theoretical and practical training to the surgeon who wishes to specialize in minimally invasive arthroscopic elbow surgery techniques through short lectures, video presentations, case report discussions and working groups on cadaveric specimens.

The seminar will be held on February 1st, 2017 in Aristotle University Research Dissemination Center (KE.D.E.A.) and the AUTh Laboratory of Descriptive Anatomy
