Over a 3-year period a series of 2-day courses running in June and February each year will cover the entire syllabus in hand surgery. Each course will explore a subject area in depth with innovative teaching combining lectures, small group tutorials and simulation.
The third course in series 9 will cover inflammatory and degenerative arthritis of the hand and will run on Friday 6 and Saturday 7 June 2025.
Ahead of the course delegates will receive pre-course material to provide a refresher on some of the basic principles.
Alongside a programme of short focussed lectures, our expert faculty will run small group tutorials, practical simulation work and facilitated case-based discussions covering all aspects of inflammatory and degenerative arthritis of the hand including joint replacement surgery, fusions and rheumatoid hand surgery.
In addition to the comprehensive education programme there will be the opportunity to meet faculty and other delegates in our popular welcome reception immediately after the close of day 1, on the Friday evening.
The course will conclude with a complex case workshop where the faculty and delegates will discuss the approach to challenging clinical cases.
