A WORD OF WELCOME

Invitation to the 2026 Annual Meeting

Presedinte SRUC
Dr. Marius NegruPresident, SRUC / RESS

Dear colleagues and friends,

It is a great pleasure to invite orthopaedic surgeons passionate about shoulder and elbow surgery to join us this year in Poiana Brasov, at the 5th Annual Meeting of the Romanian Shoulder and Elbow Society (SRUC / RESS) - an anniversary edition and our first meeting under SECEC patronage, the European Society for Surgery of the Shoulder and the Elbow.

This year brings a true premiere for Romania. For the first time, the congress will be preceded by a complex cadaveric shoulder arthroscopy course, alongside a cadaveric elbow arthroscopy course - the first of its kind in the country. Organised in partnership with the Transilvania University of Medicine in Brasov and Medical Ortovit, this hands-on programme on cadaveric specimens will directly precede the three days of the congress.

Together, the course and the congress create an unprecedented five-day experience for surgeons dedicated to the upper limb - combining hands-on cadaveric training, live surgery, interactive workshops and the latest scientific sessions in a single immersive meeting.

We are honoured to host over 15 renowned international guests, who will share their experience and expertise directly with Romanian surgeons - an exceptional opportunity to learn, exchange knowledge and build lasting collaborations.
