The workshop provided an exceptional learning opportunity for attendees from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh to enhance their skills and knowledge of the latest surgical techniques in knee arthroscopy.

The workshop was conducted by experienced orthopaedic surgeons. It mainly focused on practical learning using advanced equipment and cadaveric specimens. There were lectures on a range of topics, such as Anatomic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction, Postero Lateral Corner Reconstruction, Meniscal Injuries, Graft Harvesting Technique, Cartilage injuries of the Knee, Multi Ligament Reconstruction of the Knee, and Graft Selection for Knee Ligament Surgeries.

In the second half of the workshop, the attendees were given the opportunity to practice and refine their skills on cadaveric specimens under the guidance of expert instructors.
