The SEPAS European Pelvic Conference takes place on 11 September 2026 in Amsterdam, bringing together surgeons with a specialist interest in pelvic and acetabular trauma. Organised by the Society of European Pelvis and Acetabulum Surgeons (SEPAS), the meeting is focused specifically on the surgical challenges, evidence and clinical decision-making surrounding injuries of the pelvis and acetabulum.
Rather than following the format of a broad orthopaedic congress, the Amsterdam meeting is designed around specialist exchange. The programme combines a consensus meeting with interactive discussion of complex clinical cases and presentation of current research. This creates a setting in which surgeons can examine difficult treatment decisions, compare approaches and contribute to areas where practice in pelvic and acetabular trauma continues to evolve.
SEPAS was established as a European scientific society dedicated to pelvic and acetabular trauma surgery. Its activities centre on research, specialist training and collaboration between surgeons and national orthopaedic and trauma organisations across Europe. The European Pelvic Conference reflects that focus by bringing clinical experience and scientific evidence together in a concentrated one-day meeting.
For orthopaedic trauma surgeons treating pelvic ring injuries and acetabular fractures, the conference offers an opportunity to engage with a specialist European community and to discuss complex cases beyond the principles covered in general trauma meetings. The emphasis on consensus, difficult clinical problems and emerging research makes the meeting particularly relevant to surgeons involved in advanced pelvic and acetabular fracture care.
