New scenarios in traumatology push us to propose new training programs that fit the real needs of experienced professionals, so that they can incorporate advances in the management of knee, ankle and foot pathology into their daily practice"

Orthopedic surgery and traumatology is constantly evolving. The volume of information increases exponentially every year and it is impossible to be updated in all areas of the specialty, unless a team of experts in different sub-areas performs this work for the specialist, making an intelligent discrimination of the information. In addition, the current tendency to subspecialize in one anatomical region or surgical technique , makes it more difficult to keep up to date in those areas that are not routinely treated.

Advances in molecular biology, biomaterials, cell culture, diagnostic imaging techniques and minimally invasive endoscopic access have been integrated opening new expectations in the management of patients with medical-surgical pathologies of the knee, ankle and foot. The prognosis after surgery improves along with shorter recovery times and a lower rate of post-surgical infection, making these new approaches an opportunity, once unthinkable, for patients.

This Postgraduate diploma in Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology of the Knee, Ankle and Foot offers a detailed review of the most relevant advances in the discipline from an eminently practical point of view, providing the necessary update to the specialist to be able to provide quality care to their patients.
