Join us during the lunch break for three educational lunch symposia, each dedicated to hot topics in the spine community. These 75-minute sessions are brought to you by renowned speakers and carefully curated by the Pre-Day and Lunch Symposium Committee.
Here’s what we have lined up:
Wednesday: The Role of Nuclear Medicine Imaging in Spinal Pathologies
This symposium addresses the diagnosis and management of primary and postoperative spinal infections. Topics include debridement strategies, hardware management, lateral approaches, and long-term deformity correction following infection.
Thursday: Spine Surgery 2.0: A Peek into the Latest Technological Advancements
Key considerations in complex cervical revisions are explored, including indications for reoperation in cases of pseudarthrosis, hardware failure, and infection. Surgical strategies comparing anterior versus posterior approaches are critically reviewed.
Friday: Complex Thoracic Pathologies
This session provides an overview of spinal osteotomy techniques, including posterior column procedures and vertebral column resections. Faculty will discuss patient selection, intraoperative technique, and how to navigate the steep learning curve.
Don't miss these invaluable sessions! See you there!
