Upper Limb
| Dedicated Specialty Stream | ODU 2027 |

Upper Limb

The Upper Limb program will bring together internationally recognised faculty, leading Australian surgeons and specialists across shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand trauma and reconstruction.
Designed as a leading educational forum for the upper limb community, the program will feature dedicated Shoulder & Elbow and Wrist & Hand programs, focusing on emerging techniques, complex case management, current evidence and evolving treatment strategies.
Through expert-led presentations, practical discussions and interactive case reviews, delegates will have the opportunity to engage directly with leaders in the field, challenge current thinking and explore different treatment approaches and how clinical practice is evolving across upper limb surgery.
As part of ODU 2027, Upper Limb delegates will enjoy a dedicated subspecialty agenda while also connecting with the broader orthopaedic community through shared plenary sessions and networking events.
