Dear colleagues
To invite and to welcome you to the fourth Slovenian AOVet course, but the first after 15 years, is an honour and a pleasure we all - the organizers, speakers and course chairmen – enjoy very much.
In two and a half days of concentrated work we will discuss the basic AO principles, their practical application and, last but not least, important topics of fracture assessment and peri-operative measurements.
Lectures given by highly experienced surgeons will cover the most important topics of small animal fracture management. A high number of hands-on workshop exercises and stimulating small group case discussions will deepen the acquired knowledge and demonstrate the applicability of AO principles and implant systems. And finally a session will offer the possibility to discuss cases brought in by participants, a programme point usually highly appreciated in similar courses.
The meeting venue should additionally contribute to the course attractiveness: The Metropol Hotel in beautiful Portorož, a lovely town on the Slovenian Adriatic coast, will be a wonderful location to experience this most informative meeting.
We are looking forward to meeting you in Portorož!
Dr. Günter Schwarz, Diplomate ECVS, Fachtierarzt für Kleintiere,
International Chairman
Prof. Dr. Bojan Zorko
Slovenian Chairman
