Deformity Correction Course — SPOT Biomechanics Section/MUC/Bonecare
Objectives:
1) learn to systematically evaluate lower limb deformities; 2) learn to plan their correction.
3) Know the tools/techniques that will allow you to execute the planned correction
Description: theoretical lectures alternated with practical exercise using the concepts previously presented
