Now in its 9th year, the Basingstoke's Annual Knee Osteotomy Masterclass will be continuing with exciting new developments for 2016.
Live surgery, more hands on workshops and lectures from keynote speakers make the meeting a key event in the conference calander.
Live cadaveric demonstrations of a High Tibial Osteotomy will be shown together with other fixation devices for High Tibial Osteotomy on both days.
Itinerary:
Day 1 will focus primarily on HTO and will include workshops and live demos of the surgical technique.
Day 2 will look at DFO and more complex osteotomy together with new developments.
There will be workshops on planning as well as saw bone sessions where delegates get hands on experience under the direction of the faculty, who include some of the top names in osteotomy surgery in Europe and Globally.
The international faculty will share their combined wealth of experience to help delegates understand, and master, the complexities of osteotomy surgery around the knee. All aspects of knee osteotomy surgery are covered, including rehabilitation and dealing with complications. The course is not only aimed at surgeons with little or no experience of osteotomy; we also encourage knee surgeons who regularly perform osteotomy to come and share their experiences.
Following the success of the 2015 Northern Masterclass, the 2016 course was not a disappointment.
The course itself was extremely successful, attracting experts, trainees and everyone in between from all over the globe.
There was a large amount of interest in the registry at the event, with a number of new sign ups and demonstration requests. There were also patient engagement packs available as well as the opportunity to see the full site.
We look forward to next years masterclass!
