Conference

On March 20 and 21, 2026, the second edition of the “Current Concepts on Hip & Knee Arthroplasty” congress will take place at the Grand Hotel Punta del Este. This event has become a benchmark in joint reconstruction surgery.

Over two intensive days of scientific updates and exchange of experiences, key topics in hip and knee prosthetic surgery will be explored in depth, including:

•⁠ ⁠Periprosthetic fractures and infections
•⁠ ⁠Navigation- and robotics-assisted surgery
•⁠ ⁠Revision surgeries
•⁠ ⁠Osteosynthesis rescue

The program includes extensive spaces for interactive discussion and crossfire sessions between invited faculty and participants, fostering debate and collaborative learning.
