Welcome to the 19th Annual Hand Review Course and Annual Scientific Meeting of the Singapore Society for Hand Surgery. The theme for this year’s Review Course is “Wrist Arthroscopy: Broaden Your Scope”. The course is aimed at surgical trainees especially those interested in Hand Surgery, Orthopaedics, Plastic Surgery and Emergency Medicine. The course is also relevant to hand therapists. This course will be especially exciting as we have invited world renowned wrist arthroscopic surgeon Dr Ho Pak-Cheong to be part of the teaching faculty. He will share his expertise in a series of lectures and a mini-symposium. We have put together an exciting and educational programme covering all aspects of hand, wrist and microsurgery, and invite you to share in the vast knowledge and experience of Dr Ho and Singapore’s leading proponents of hand and wrist surgery. Finally, we invite you to share YOUR knowledge and experience through discussion and the Free Paper/Poster presentations.
