Romanian Hernia Days
After two years of restrictions and frustrations due to the pandemic Covid-19, the Organising Comittee announce the Romanian Hernia Days Conference face-to-face on 3—4th October 2024. Due to your interests and the presence of fantastic faculty – celebrities in the World Hernia Surgery, we can continue a tradition: October = RHD.
In the same enthusiastic spirit, the invited speakers from Europe, Mexico, Columbia, India, and the USA, will present the surgical techniques in abdominal wall reconstruction, being themselves the authors of these techniques or authors of guidelines or masters in hernia surgery.
