This two-day course will focus on the understanding of basic principles of CORA based correction of limb deformity, mostly using internal fixation. The practical part will cover correction of common deformities affecting the elbow joint, the distal antebrachium and femur.  Surgical templates will be provided to allow for comparison between eyeballing and template-based corrective osteomy.

11:00-11:15 Coffee break

11:15-13:00 Dry-Lab: Evaluation of limb deformities on x-ray

13:00-14:00 Lunch break (lunch included)
