On 24 & 25 September 2026, Auxein brought together 18 orthopedic surgeons from four countries at the Auxein × Nano Medical Training Centre in Groß-Gerau, Germany, for advanced cadaveric training in knee and shoulder arthroscopy and High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO). The programme provided a platform for surgeons to exchange clinical perspectives, discuss contemporary surgical techniques, and learn through expert-led demonstrations and hands-on practice.
The Programme at a Glance
Participating Countries
At Auxein, learning goes beyond theory. The cadaveric training programme provided surgeons with opportunities to explore anatomical structures, practise surgical techniques, and refine their understanding in a realistic, controlled learning environment under expert guidance.
Why Cadaveric Training Matters:
Acl & All Graft Preparation
Expert Demonstration | Dr. Samo Novak, MD (Specialist Orthopaedic Surgeon)
A key highlight of Auxein was the demonstration of ACL and ALL graft preparation by Dr. Samo Novak. The session provided participants with an opportunity to observe the technical steps involved, discuss the surgical principles behind the approach, and explore the technique through hands-on cadaveric practice.
Key Learning Focus:
Graft Preparation: Understanding the technical steps involved in ACL and ALL graft preparation.
Surgical Principles: Exploring the concepts underlying the demonstrated approach.
Expert Demonstration: Observing the technique and engaging in focused discussion.
Hands-On Practice: Translating demonstrated concepts into practical cadaveric learning.
High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO)
Expert Demonstration | Prof. George Benjamin Edgar (M.D, M.P.H.)
Prof. George Benjamin Edgar demonstrated High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO), highlighting the surgical principles and technical considerations involved in achieving appropriate correction. The session explored preoperative planning, accurate osteotomy execution, controlled correction, and the importance of lower-limb alignment through hands-on cadaveric practice.
Key Technical Considerations:
Auxein Medical’s commitment to advancing orthopedic education through scientific learning, international collaboration, surgical innovation, and practical training. By bringing together surgeons, researchers, educators, and industry partners, the programme aims to create opportunities for knowledge exchange, skills development, and continued professional learning.
