6th Singapore Wrist Course


Welcome to the 6th edition of the Singapore Wrist Course. It has been more than 2 years since the last one was held due to the pandemic. We are happy to reinstate this annual event. This edition is made special as it is the designated pre-congress event of the combined Asia Pacific Federations of Societies for Surgery of the Hand (APFSSH) and the Asia Pacific Wrist Association (APWA) congresses. 

This wrist course promises to be exciting with an impressive international faculty who are highly esteemed in the field of both wrist and small joint arthroscopy as well as open wrist surgery. 

The 2 full days of hands on cadaveric workshop will allow the participants to focus on learning the skills required for multiple state of the art therapeutic procedures that are done in centres of excellence worldwide. 

Under the watchful eyes of the faculty, the participants will also be able to interact freely with the esteemed faculty and be guided in their learning journey at their own comfortable pace, with close supervision. 

Come sign up for a fruitful 2 days of high quality hands on educational experience using the state of the art instrumentation and equipment.
