The First annual Cherry Blossom Seminar was held on April 2-4, 1982 at the Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C. under the Chairmanship of Charles H. Epps, Jr., M.D. and M.Mike Malek, M.D. The first seminar was designed for the beginner Arthroscopist and included didactic lectures and hands on interactive workshops. The seminar was sponsored by Depuy with Howard University providing the CME accreditation. An international faculty was invited and provided an outstanding educational experience for over two hundred and fifty participants.
The Cherry Blossom Seminar over the past 39 years has evolved in format and now incorporates multiple sponsors. It now caters to a wider range of health fields including not just physicians, fellows and residents but nurses, PAs, PTs and ATC’s. Our principle idea is to provide the best educational experience for those seeking higher levels of knowledge and expertise in Arthroscopy, Arthroplasty and Sports Medicine. Since the inception we have conducted 40 seminars in the past 39 years and have assisted in arthroscopy, arthroscopic surgery and related surgery education of over 4500 orthopaedic surgeons, fellows and residents. At the present time the Cherry Blossom Seminar is the longest running independent Arthroscopy/ Arthroplasty seminar in the world.
Trice Medical and Marathon Medical are teaming up to show you the latest in disposable arthroscopes and endoscopic carpal tunnel release systems!
What if ECTR surgery could be performed in the procedure room and the office without extras like an arthroscopy tower or anesthesia tower? It is now possible with the world’s first completely disposable ECTR kit. We’ve transformed our classic Seg-WAY endoscopic carpal tunnel release system and enhanced it for increased efficiency. The world’s first completely disposable ECTR system arrives this Spring. Interested in previewing ECTR-d? Request a demo here: https://lnkd.in/euNpcWe
