Nuno Sampaio Gomes – Chairman of European Shoulder Associates of ESSKA

Another great meeting, gathering shoulder surgeons from all over the country and a few international colleagues. A pleasure to be part of it again and congratulations to the organisers!

Finally getting back to in-person meetings, hopefully they have come to stay!

Contributing to an awesome programme and joining with my pairs and mentors after such a long time made my day!

The ESSKA Speciality Days 2nd edition was postponed to November 2023 due to the pandemic. However, ESSKA has not given up on 2021! We rose to the challenge and we have created a ’Speciality September, 2021’,  exclusively for Section Members where they were able to meet online to enjoy a great Scientific Programme and catch-up and connect after the summer.

Debates on current knowledge on shoulder arthroscopy techniques with Dr Jakob Merkac from Slovenia, with an audience from the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Africa.

A great pleasure to participate once again in this Egyptian important event with a fantastic domestic Faculty and 16 other surgeons for all over the world.

Congratulations to the organisers and a special thank you to Professor Mohamed Gamal Morsy, Vice-President of EGAA, for another kind invitation!
