Hip joint injuries are common in orthopedics and traumatology, affecting patients' mobility, daily activities, and ability to work. There are various causes of hip injuries, such as avascular necrosis of the femoral head, hip osteoarthritis, femoral neck fractures, hip tuberculosis, and rheumatoid arthritis, among others.
On October 17, Viet Duc Friendship Hospital successfully organized a scientific symposium themed "SuperPath Minimally Invasive Total Hip Arthroplasty", marking a breakthrough in the application of advanced techniques for the treatment of hip joint disorders.
Attending the symposium, on behalf of Viet Duc Friendship Hospital, was Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Manh Khanh, Deputy Director of the Hospital.
From the University of Leicester, United Kingdom, was Dr. Kulkarni Ashwin Govind from the University Hospitals of Leicester, United Kingdom.
