Meet the experts at your doorstep—a new set of the AO Trauma Europe Masters Courses will be conducted in 2020
For the past decade, AO Trauma Europe and Southern Africa (AO TESA) has supported the continuing professional development of orthopedic and trauma surgeons in Europe with its Europe Masters Courses. AO Trauma is pleased to announce that it will conduct these successful AO TESA Masters Courses again in 2020.
In-depth, detailed, and relevant
The AO TESA Masters Courses help surgeons to address the difficult patient problems they face in their daily practices. They feature in-depth discussions, detailing advanced clinical problems and techniques, and also include high-level, open group discussions that are led by experts. Case analyses with feedback sessions and practical exercises with anatomical specimen dissections provide participants with the opportunity to explore more advanced treatment methods.
The courses also serve as a catalyst in bringing specialists from European countries together to work collectively, by sharing best practices and experiences.
