Basic Fractures | June 21-22 2021

Hand and wrist fractures, are the most common fractures of the body. And are therefore often presented in the emergency department. Proper management at initial evaluation of hand fracture injuries can prevent a significant amount of morbidity and disability. Every hand surgeon should have a comprehensive knowledge of hand fracture management. Esser Basic Fracture Course is designed to improve hand and wrist fracture management for hand surgery residents (Plastic, Orthopedic and Trauma Surgeons). The practical sessions will be performed on fresh frozen cadavers with two participants per extremity. The Esser Basic Fracture will be organized every year.

[Please note, as there are few English speaking participants the course will be held in Dutch this year]
