Compare focused elbow teaching with combined shoulder-and-elbow or wider upper-limb programmes. Decide whether you need arthroscopy, trauma, stiffness, instability, replacement or rehabilitation content, then check how much of the edition is dedicated to that subject.
Compare announced dates, locations, formats and published fees. Follow the official source for admission requirements and available places. Dates to be announced appear after confirmed-date listings.
As of 2026-11-09, this selection contains 60 current or announced listings from 49 listed organizers in 26 countries. Formats represented: Congress (25), Cadaveric (14), Masterclass (9), Hands-on (5), Ultrasound (4), Live + Lab (2) and Meeting (1).
The earliest listed edition with exact dates is SESA Biennial Conference 2026 (Nov 11, 2026 – Nov 14, 2026, Geelong, Australia). A date in the directory does not confirm an open place.
4 listings have qualified or unconfirmed exact dates. Check the date evidence on their detail pages before using them for travel planning.
Combined courses can divide their days between several joints. Look for the individual elbow sessions and their dates, rather than assuming that the full congress date range represents elbow teaching throughout.
An elbow course may offer case discussions, surgical demonstrations, scanning or anatomical-specimen work. Ask which procedures are scheduled for participant practice, what experience is expected and whether a congress pass includes the laboratory session.
A dedicated elbow course and a broader upper-extremity meeting may serve different goals. Use the course detail pages to compare audience, teaching language, schedule and fees; confirm any waitlist or invitation requirement with the organizer.
