Welcome!

On behalf of FESSH, we are excited to welcome you to our second Advanced Course in Hand Surgery. The course is focused on arthroplasty of the hand and wrist and we have a very experienced faculty from around Europe. The course is aimed at established surgeons and will include tips and tricks to prepare you to add these procedures to your practice.

An added value to such a course is the professional network you may be relying on in the future through your contact with our faculty and fellow attendees.

The course will include four two hour cadlab sessions for each delegate, with additional small group discussion of indications for surgery, technical tips, rehabilitation and a discussion of how to manage complications.

Procedures to cover:

• thumb - interposition and total joint replacement
• PIP joint silicone and total joint arthroplasty
• ulna head replacement
• wrist replacement arthroplasty

You can apply for the special registration fee through your National Hand Society by contacting the FESSH delegate of your country: fessh.com/national-delegates. The number of special registrations is limited. The applicant should be a member of her/his national hand society and have a minimum of 3 years of experience in hand surgery OR an EBHS diploma.

Special registration will be open for participants delegated by FESSH National Societies first. Registration and payment deadline for participants with FESSH support (Special surgeon fee) is 14 July 2023.

Standard surgeon registration, subject to available free places, will start on 20 July 2023. Registrations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Your registration will be valid when the registration fee has been paid.

Observers are also welcome to visit the cadlab work and watch actions closely, beside take part in small group discussions and lectures. Registration is now open for Observers.
