Orthopedics and Rheumatology
Orthopedics and Rheumatology spans musculoskeletal health in children, including congenital orthopedic conditions, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, sports-related injuries, growth-plate pathology and paediatric rheumatologic systemic disease. This session is aimed at pediatric orthopaedic surgeons, rheumatologists, physiotherapists and sports medicine clinicians. Topics of Pediatric Orthopedics Conference include early detection and management of developmental dysplasia, contemporary technical and non-surgical approaches to limb deformities, biologic therapies and treat-to-target strategies for juvenile arthritis, and rehabilitation pathways that restore function and participation. Research sessions will explore osteoporosis in chronic illness, biologic safety in growing children, and novel imaging for cartilage and growth plate assessment.

Clinical Impact & Practical Takeaways
Preserving Mobility
Early detection and guided growth techniques reduce long-term deformity and preserve function.
Controlling Inflammation
Treat-to-target and biologic therapies minimise joint damage and improve quality of life.
Safer Youth Sport
Prevention programmes and graded return-to-play reduce reinjury and long-term sequelae.
Restoring Function
Structured rehab and bone-health strategies enable safe participation in daily life and sport.
