!!INTRODUCING THIS YEAR!!

PRE AND POST COURSE SESSIONS FEATURING:

Management of Complex Segmental Bone Defects: A to Z (PRE-COURSE)

Introduce basic and advanced concepts in limb alignment, corrective osteotomies, and internal and external fixation for limb reconstruction, including lengthening and realignment. 

Topics to be covered:

  • Single-level and double-level tibial and femoral deformities  
  • Sagittal and oblique plane deformities
  • Rotational deformities
  • Foot and ankle deformities
  • Monolateral/circular external fixation
  • Acute correction techniques
  • Gait implications for angular and rotational deformities
  • Measurement of deformity on digital radiographs
  • Consequences of joint malorientation and malalignment
  • Limb lengthening techniques

Learning Objectives

  • Describe simple and complex lower limb deformities in pediatric and adult patients.
  • Interpret advances in the field of limb reconstruction and deformity correction.
  • Identify the optimal location of osteotomies.
  • Recognize the methodology of minimally invasive internal and external fixation.
