Arthroscopy · Fixation · Reconstruction
An intensive two-day cadaver-based program delivering advanced hands-on training in foot and ankle surgery — from minimally invasive arthroscopy to complex reconstructive procedures on human anatomical specimens.
This cadaver-based program delivers intensive hands-on training in foot and ankle arthroscopy, fracture fixation, arthrodesis, and reconstructive surgery. Participants practise both minimally invasive and open techniques on human anatomical specimens in a high-fidelity learning environment.
Designed for orthopedic surgeons, fellows, and senior residents seeking to sharpen advanced foot and ankle surgical mastery, with direct mentorship from subspecialty experts.
Anterior & posterior approaches, portal placement, diagnostic arthroscopy, OCD management, and synovectomy techniques.
Surgical exposures of the midfoot and hindfoot — medial, lateral, and plantar approaches with anatomic dissection guidance.
Open and percutaneous repair techniques, augmentation strategies, and management of chronic tendinopathy.
Proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty, arthrodesis, flexor-to-extensor transfer, and metatarsal osteotomies.
Ankle fracture ORIF, calcaneal fixation, Lisfranc injury management — implant techniques with fluoroscopy guidance.
Medializing calcaneal osteotomy, FDL transfer, spring ligament repair, and lateral column lengthening in cadaver.
Practice on fresh human anatomical specimens — the closest replication of real surgical conditions outside the operating room.
A maximum of two surgeons per cadaver ensures every participant receives meaningful hands-on time at each station.
Direct mentorship from subspecialty-trained foot & ankle surgeons with practical pearls and live demonstrations.
Each lab station is designed to teach consistent, reproducible steps that transfer directly to clinical practice.
