Groundbreaking Course on Limb Replantation!

FESSH is excited to introduce the Practical Course on Upper Limb Trauma and Replantation – from Bone to Skin!

Aim of the Course

  • Introduce replantations in hand surgery and more in general hand trauma surgery: learn the reimplantation technique on models and cadaveric specimens.
  • The initial first day (vessels, nerve, tendon, bone) are a preparation for the final two days where forearm/wrist, long fingers and thumb reimplantation will be performed under the supervision of experienced European surgeons.
  • Describe and teach basic techniques for each tissue (bone, vessels, nerves, tendons, muscles, skin)
  • Describe and teach surgical techniques for different lesion levels.
  • Describes the early and late complications of both microsurgery and reimplants in general

Participants are required to have a diploma or a certificate of a basic microsurgical course.

Join us for this 3-day practical course and elevate your surgical skills to new heights!
