SI-BONE SACROPELVIC EVOLUTION PROGRAM

April 26-27, 2024  |  The Westin Austin Downtown  |  310 5th St., Austin, TX 78701

The Sacropelvic Evolution Program is designed to bring together orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons who are currently completing a spine fellowship, and residents with an interest in pursuing spine, for a comprehensive overview of the prevalence, diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction.

Fifteen years ago, SI-BONE pioneered minimally invasive surgery of the SI joint, creating a durable and effective surgical treatment for a problem that had been ignored and often misdiagnosed for decades. In recent years, SI-BONE has expanded its product portfolio to include technologies that are driving evolutions in trauma and pelvic fixation techniques.

The Sacropelvic Evolution Program will provide a great opportunity for you to join your colleagues, share your experiences, and learn about the latest advancements.

We look forward to seeing you in Tampa.
