From 11 June to 13 June 2025, the 26th Annual EFORT Congress, the leading European event in the field of orthopaedics and traumatology, took place in Lyon, France. This forum brings together leading experts from around the world to discuss the most pressing issues, share experiences and present innovative approaches to the treatment of musculoskeletal diseases.

Our Institute was represented by four scientific reports that aroused great interest among the international community.
Our experts also moderated a scientific symposium on modern strategies for revision hip arthroplasty.

We would also like to note a series of working meetings with representatives of the European Hip Society (EHS), during which we discussed further steps of cooperation in the field of scientific research and international educational programmes.

Stanislav Bondarenko, Director of the Sytenko Institute of Spine and Joint Pathology National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine:
“Participation in EFORT is not just an event. It is a platform where the future of orthopaedics is being shaped. We are proud to have represented Ukraine at the international level in a worthy and meaningful way”.

We are grateful to the EFORT organisers for the impeccable organisation and to all our colleagues for meaningful discussions, openness to new ideas and a common desire to develop orthopaedics for the benefit of patients around the world.

The State Institution “Sytenko Institute of Spine and Joint Pathology National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine” continues to move forward confidently, combining experience, science and innovation.
