6th Shoulder course: 6th Practical Course on Shoulder Surgery, PCSS.

Dear friends,
On January 27 and 28, 2023 we are organizing our 6th shoulder course: 6th Practical Course on Shoulder Surgery, PCSS.
After we were forced to convert the previous edition into an online webinar, we are doing everything we can to make 2023 a top live edition.
We keep the concept of the previous editions and combine presentations with live clinical research and live surgeries.
We start on Friday afternoon, have an evening session after a short communal course dinner and finish at the bar from 9:00 PM.
Saturday morning we start at 8.30 am to close the course at 1 pm.

With our completed free paper session with 5 national research projects and Laurent Lafosse as "Guest of honor", our meeting finds its definitive completion.

The great international faculty is a fantastic group of friends! They make the meeting not only a scientific highlight but they also create a warm and friendly social caracter to the event.

Feel free to join us and register using this link https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdZ1DUwSBDtfge4kks9qecQu2hEZlghFDOB71mwossOYGbEcg/viewform
