Description

Dear AO Trauma 'Switzerland Annual Conference' participant

We kindly invite you to the annual conference of AO Trauma Switzerland taking place from May 2 -3, 2024 in Chur, Graubünden. The administrative meeting will take place later in the afternoon on May 2nd, followed by a joint dinner for all AO Trauma Switzerland members and annual meeting participants. The canton of Graubünden is recognized for its mountains, drawing sports enthusiasts of all ages. We live and work in a canton where visitors seek to challenge their limits, leading to occasional accidents. The Graubünden Cantonal Hospital serves as a central medical facility in the region. Accordingly, we treat many patients with mountain sports trauma. This is why we chose "Mountain sports trauma: new trends, tips, and tricks" as the topic of this conference. We have selected these topics so that the most common bone injuries related to mountain sports are covered. Special attention will also be paid to mis healed fractures and their revision options which will be discussed at the end of each module. Participants in residency program will receive a 50% discount on the participation fee this year (please contact the organizer directly). We look forward to your participation and fruitful discussions.
