The hand surgery scholarship and training program of this center is considered the best in the U.S. of its kind
The Spanish surgeon Francisco del Piñal participated last week in Baltimore (USA) as guest professor in the training sessions of the Curtis National Hand Center (http://www.curtishand.com/). The scholarship program of this center, associated with the MedStar Union Memorial Hospital (http://www.unionmemorial.org/), is considered the best in the U.S. in the field of hand and upper limb surgery.
During his teaching stay, Del Piñal exposed to the Curtis National alumni new techniques for wrist surgeryintervention, using live video feed; in addition to a demonstration of foot bone section for using the fragments in wrist reconstructive surgery, among other issues addressed.
