This masterclass cadaver course is for physiotherapist observers.

We are pleased to invite you to a unique two-day Masterclass by prof C.Niek van Dijk.
Prof Niek van Dijk is one of the giants of orthopedics and certainly the most influential physician in the field of ankle arthroscopy and the treatment of ankle and hindfoot disorders. He is one of the founders of modern orthopedics and his legacy reaches far beyond the ankle alone. His 40 years of research has definitely transformed our approach to the ankle and hindfoot. He changed the way we treat our patients. We are honored that he has agreed to share his knowledge with us. It is a unique opportunity to learn from the master himself.

We have asked him to share his tips and tricks and secrets to success. Apart from his lectures he will demonstrate the fine points and nuances of the physical examination and interact with the participants over case discussions. Prof van Dijk will also present his interactive à la carte lecture ‘The latest is always the greatest’ in which the participants can choose out of 50 topics, which mini lecture they want to hear. And what can be more inspiring than being assisted and guided in the hands-on workshop by the master himself, the originator of all these procedures.

An excellent international faculty is part of this masterclass and you will enjoy their knowledge and guidance.
