Designed for both the casual and advanced arthroscopist, this course will focus on the latest techniques in both shoulder and knee arthroscopy. This course features two full days of hands-on skills training in the cadaver lab in tandem with pre-recorded lecture presentations accessible prior to the course to reduce the amount of time spent in a large-group learning environment. This also allows more time at your home base with your patients by eliminating the Friday coursework while giving you the freedom to view didactic content as your schedule allows. Saturday and Sunday are exclusively dedicated to hands-on cadaver lab skills training – this is the hallmark of AANA Lab Courses. We will be enforcing the new AANA Safe Strides™ initiative to ensure your safety and comfort during these in-person interactions.

Additional course features include: live webinars with panel discussions, Q&A and breakout sessions; interactive, real-time social media discussions; a reading reference list; and more!

The agenda includes content such as:

  • ACL Grafts, Tunnels and Fixation: Avoiding Common Mistakes
  • Isolation Cartilage Defects: How Do You Pick Your Cartilage Procedure – An Algorithm for Success in 2020
  • Orthobiologics in the Knee: My In-Office Discussions and Utilization – What’s Appropriate Based on Evidence?
