7 & 8 May 2025
ORSI Academy - Proefhoevestraat 12, 9090 Melle, Belgium
The course covers all theoretical and practical details of operating techniques for reconstruction of the knee joint. For instance, arthroscopic cruciate ligament and meniscus surgery, cartilate therapy and MPFL replacement. State of the art instruments and implants are used. Our expert faculty communicate their own experience through in-depth lectures, training videos on technique and anatomy, as well as hands-on practice with cadaver and models.
Learning Objectives:
After attending the course, participants will observe how CONMED products are used in knee reconstruction surgery.
Target Group:
Intermediate to advanced, no experts. Surgeons that do ACL/PCL surgery on a weekly basis (or at least weekly basis) and want to improve their skills. If we translate this to numbers it would be at least 50 ACL per year.
Capacity: 15 delegates.
