Dear EHS Members,
The EHS Webinar #1 was a great success with over 600 registrations! Thanks for the excellent presentations by Prof Luigi Zagra on “Key steps in planning total hip arthroplasty”, Assoc Prof Eduardo García-Rey on “Modern posterior approach in uncemented total hip replacement” and Prof Eleftherios Tsiridis on “THA: implant positioning and optimisation”.
We attracted a lot of young hip surgeons from all over the world and we had plenty of time at the end for debate, answering questions via chat, led by our moderators Prof Alister Hart, Dr Olga Pidgaiska and of course Dr Jean-Alain Epinette.
Sincere thanks to everyone who helped spread the word about these free EHS Webinars, which we will run monthly. The free replay is available HERE for anyone who missed it, and now we are looking forward to our next session:-
