SeminarThe AO Trauma Seminar on Bone and Implant Infection is a German-language educational meeting organised by AO Trauma. The seminar focuses on clinical decision-making in the diagnosis and management of bone and implant-associated infection in trauma and orthopaedic practice.
The programme addresses key clinical challenges including diagnostic evaluation, principles of surgical debridement, management of infected implants and structured treatment algorithms. Emphasis is placed on reasoning through complex clinical scenarios, timing of interventions and consistent application of established infection management principles.
This seminar is intended for orthopaedic and trauma surgeons seeking a clinically grounded, concept-driven update on bone and implant infection management. It provides structured education and discussion rather than hands-on training or advanced master-level instruction, with content tailored to regional practice and delivered in German.
