The AO returns to DKOU, Germany's premier orthopedics and trauma congress

Visit the AO booth or attend one of our seminars, October 25–28, Berlin

The AO is returning to DKOU (German Congress of Orthopedics and Traumatology)—the most important orthopedics and trauma congress in Germany and the field’s largest in Europe—this year. With the theme “Passion for the Patient,” the October 25–28 event in Berlin will offer top-tier scientific symposia and seminars featuring world-leading experts from the AO Innovation Translation Center (AO ITC), AO Trauma, AO Spine, AO Recon, and AO Sports.

Visit the AO booth (hall 2.2 booth 20) to test your skills with the AO’s digitally enhanced, hands-on surgical training (DEHST) and experience the AO Fracture Monitor as well as the Biphasic Plate for next-generation dynamic plating. Learn more about myAO, AO Global Data, and the Flexible 3D Printed Fracture Model.

DKOU 2022 is an opportunity to connect with the AO’s innovation experts and learn more about the AO ITC, membership offerings, and ways to get involved. Stop by the AO booth for a cup of coffee and a snack—and met the AO team.
