          The program began with opening remarks and an introduction to the course, followed by theoretical lectures covering indications for knee arthroscopy, operating room setup and surgical instruments, and arthroscopic anatomy of the knee.

      Later in the day, participants are attending hands-on training sessions in small groups, focusing on:
- Motor skills instrumentation
- Basic knot-tying techniques
- Arthroscopy practice on bovine knees

     In the afternoon sessions, key clinical topics are addressed, including the management of meniscal lesions, arthroscopic treatment of cartilage defects, synovial pathologies, and complications in knee arthroscopy. Conducted under the guidance of experienced instructors, the course aims to enhance participants’ fundamental motor skills in arthroscopic surgery.
