Advanced Wrist Summit 2021
Discuss complicated wrist fracture cases and investigate treatment techniques, Thursdays January 14 to April 8
Fractures of the wrist account for nearly one sixth of fractures treated in emergency departments. However, no two fractures are treated the same way—each fracture has specific characteristics and requires customized approaches. The Advanced Wrist Summit allows participants to review and discuss clinical cases so they may discover new tactics and techniques on how to tackle clinical complications and challenges related to fractures and diseases of the wrist.
Who should attend: community-based orthopedic, plastic, and general surgeons actively involved in the treatment of patients with wrist fractures and post-traumatic reconstruction.
This AO Trauma Hand NA Online series is being held through Zoom™.
