CT_Brighton_Workhop_Hip_LogoLed by co-chairs Christopher L. Peters, MD, and Klaus A. Siebenrock, MD, the renowned international faculty of the Carl T. Brighton Workshop on Hip Preservation Surgery explored the current state and future of hip preservation surgery in 11 key areas, focusing on femoroacetabular impingement, hip dysplasia, and pediatric hip diseases. Video presentations from the workshop, held November 16-19 in Tampa, Florida, are available on Orthopaedia®.
