Arthroscopy is an essential skill to provide comprehensive management of elbow and shoulder disease for your patients. This one-day course, pitched at an intermediate to advanced level, is for veterinary surgeons who want to develop skills in diagnostic and surgical arthroscopy in small animals. The focus of the course will be the elbow joint and the shoulder joint.
The day will be a mixture of lectures and practical sessions. The morning will be devoted to arthroscopy of the elbow and the afternoon to arthroscopy of the shoulder.

You will learn a practical structured approach on how to treat medial coronoid disease, receive principles and practical tips of elbow and shoulder arthroscopy and feel more confident about the diagnosis and management of common elbow and shoulder conditions.
