What we propose
We are happy to invite foreign surgeons to share their ideas, knowledge and expertise.
The Romanian Shoulder and Elbow Society (SRUC) is a society made up of orthopedic surgeons specialized in or with a special interest in shoulder and elbow surgery.
The annual congress aims to serve as a forum where people interested in this field can chat, exchange ideas and experience and present the results of their research in shoulder and elbow surgery.
Shaping the future through Excellence Together.
