This comprehensive course offers both basic and advanced modules, focusing on 2D and 3D deformity analysis and planning, as well as the latest treatment concepts for bone deformities and defects. General lectures will cover fundamental principles, surgical techniques, complication management, and case-based discussions.
Basic Module
Designed for those new to deformity correction, this module teaches digital 2D deformity analysis and planning. Participants will explore indications for osteotomies around the knee, including cases involving ligament and cartilage pathologies, guided by a renowned international faculty. Step-by-step demonstrations of surgical techniques for standard osteotomies will be provided, along with hands-on workshops using sawbone models und different plates.
Advanced Module
Tailored for orthopaedic surgeons with foundational experience in deformity correction, this module offers in-depth training in the Anatomical Institute of Basel using cadaver specimens. Participants will further develop their surgical skills and expand their knowledge of 3D deformity planning and analysis through specialized workshops led by a distinguished international faculty.
