Welcome Address

Dear Colleagues,

A warm welcome to the European Knee Society 2019 Arthroplasty Conference in Valencia, Spain.

The world of reconstructive knee surgery has always been an interesting and exciting place, but right now even more. The increasing demand of patients to remain active at every stage of their life and their wish to obtain a forgotten joint after surgery creates new challenges. Recent research has shed light on some fascinating developments in our understanding of both fundamental principles of how the natural knee works, and how artificial ones can help restore that natural function.

These new objectives set by our patients and our colleagues should make us think about our best current practices. What to change, where to innovate, what to keep? Can we do better and how? Are we asking the right or the wrong questions? Technological progress now allows us to aim higher than we ever could before, and the field of outcome metrics has advanced to let both patients and healthcare professionals to understand better the value of different interventions.

Value after all is outcome divided by cost. New evolutions and new technologies are increasing costs, but we should measure and observe the improvements in outcome. Furthermore, we should decide what degree of improvement makes a real difference for the patients. What we must do is focus on the benefits that implants bring to patients, and the cost-effectiveness that our work demonstrates in comparison with most medical and surgical fields.

One of the solutions to help us advance and increase our knowledge is to have a conference together. A meeting where we present our most recent ideas and concepts. Where we listen to each other and we discuss. Always with respect, but sometimes challenging and stimulating.

The program has been created to cover recent topics and remaining questions. We have two parallel rooms, which give you access to a lot of information. Can we decide together, faculty and attendees, what our surgical targets should be? We will know by the end of the meeting, if small steps were made…if future directions are clearer, if new research topics emerged.

Welcome to the EKS Conference, welcome to Valencia!

Yours sincerely,

Fabio Catani and Emmanuel Thienpont Conference Chairs
