Thanks for all applications for the EHS Travelling Fellowship to Spain in Spring. Meanwhile the Visiting Fellowship to Ireland takes place right now – thanks to our hosts in Dublin, Limerick, Galway and Cork.
I really enjoyed our webinar on Primary THA – it was a perfect example of EHS’s conviviality. Enjoy the full replay HERE and see the EHS conclusion of whether or not we should use direct anterior approach in THA. The next webinar is on 28th November @ 18:00-19:30 CET on Revision THA. Don’t miss it.
Looking ahead, EHS members can claim a 25% discount @ CCJR in Florida (11-14th December) and can now register for the Swiss Pelvic & Acetabular Course in Zurich (Jan 17-18th 2025), run by two EHS members, Prof Johannes Bastian & Prof Marius Keel, plus colleagues.
