EHS dives into the nitty gritty of hip preserving surgery @ our next free EHS Webinar on Thursday 20th June 17:00-18:30 CET.

Oliver Marin-Peña (Spain) & Klaus Siebenrock (Switzerland) will moderate the session, in which Michael Wettstein (Switzerland) will update our knowledge on indications and outcomes SHD in 2024 so far & Simon Steppacher (Switzerland) will tell us when & how to do PAO safely. Next up, Femi Ayeni (Canada) & Vikas Khanduja (UK) update our knowledge on current long-term outcomes in hip arthroscopy & new technology in preserving surgery. Then we shake it up with crossfire time between Marc Tey (Spain) & Nicola Santori (Italy): preserving surgery in moderate OA. Join us to find out who will argue for and who against, & more importantly, who will win! Our webinar closes with Pedro Dantas’ case presentation: Groin pain in a young football player.

See you there 😁

EHS hip experts gave an excellent contribution to the World Arthroplasty Congress in Madrid today & yesterday. Our faculty were in some great sessions.

Yesterday: Which Implant for Which Patient? was moderated by Dr Raymond H Kim (USA) & EHS President Elect, Fares Haddad (UK), where we enjoyed talks on:-

Cemented vs uncemented: what the registries say?
Prof Ola Rolfson, EHS Member (Sweden)
Design concepts in uncemented stems
Dr William Hamilton (USA)
Short vs conventional stems
Dr Jonathan Vigdorchik (USA)
Bearing and head diameter:
What registries say?
Dr Anders Troelsen, EHS Member (Denmark)
Practical consideration to choose your liner
Prof Luigi Zagra, EHS Member & SciCom Chair (Italy)
Place of Hip Resurfacing in 2024
EHS President Elect, Prof Fares Haddad (UK)
New perspective in hip resurfacing
Prof Justin Cobb, EHS Member (UK)

Next, the ominously titled Hip & Knee session: The Dark Side of Arthroplasty, was moderated by Dr Craig De La Valle (USA) & Prof Eleftherios Tsiridis, EHS President (Greece).

Today we focused on the Hip & Knee session: Assistive Technology, with moderators Dr Elizabeth B Gausden (USA) & Prof Sebastien Lustig, EHS Member (France). We heard EHS President, Prof Eleftherios Tsiridis (Greece) asking: "Do we really need assistive tools and can we make them cost-effective?" & EHS President Elect, Prof Fares Haddad (UK) debate: "Robotics: just a marketing tool?"
So. Is it?
Those who were there, know.
🤓

Thanks & well done to everyone involved in this nice collaboration that takes place every 3 years between EKS, IOEN, the Hip Society & the Knee Society, joining together hip surgery experts from Europe, USA and Asia-Pacific. EHS is very happy to be part of it. 😀

Meet our fresh new EHS faces in the April Newsletter, from Bulgaria, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Portugal... & Singapore!
