Course Introduction
Acute and chronic tendon ruptures are of every day for an upper extremity surgeon. The repair itself is often not so difficult, but how does my patient achieve a good to excellent result? This is the real challenge in tendon surgery. Therefore, we designed a one-day course with theoretical and practical sessions offering most types of repair in different zones, chronic reconstruction possibilities and transfers for flexor and extensor tendons. The practical sessions will be performed on fresh frozen cadavers with two participants per extremity.

Meet the Experts
Meet the Organization
Moscow is a city that combines the past and the present; where old buildings live together with high-tech business quarters. Moscow is home to more than 500 museums, 3 UNESCO World Heritage sites, and a number of world architectural records. Moscow’s rich architecture can also be seen underground: the central metro stations—real “palaces of the people” with mosaics, paintings, stucco, and dazzling illumination. Moscow is a metropolis that has everything: the best restaurants, fashionable nightclubs, skyscrapers, dizzying views, and even peaceful old courtyards where time has stood still for more than a century.
