AOSpine Advances Course, November 12–13, 2010 Tomar, Portugal 3
This course is targeted at surgeons with 3 to 10 years of experience in spine surgery, who are aiming to further improve their knowledge and/or specialization in the management of spinal trauma and specific techniques.
The AOSpine AOSpine Course—Advances in the Management of Spinal Trauma will elevate current concepts and principles to an advanced level and address controversial topics as a integrated approach to understanding spinal trauma and its state-of-the-art treatment. We picked challenging issues involving the whole spine from the occiput down to the sacrum. Some specific problems will also be pointed like the use of minimal invasive tecniques or spine trauma in structural bone deficit.
Challenges in the management of spinal trauma have produced some of the major breakthroughs in spine care, especially with regard to implant design. While some problem areas have been successfullyaddressed, new areas of care concern continue to emerge.
This course will address different topics in spinal trauma such as theManagement of polytraumatized patients• The emerging role of minimally invasive spine surgery• The treatment of patients with impaired bone structure• Challenges in spinal trauma• Complications•
