Description

Course Overview

At the 2026 Anterior Hip Foundation meeting, we’re tackling the conversations that define modern hip surgery — where opinions differ, techniques evolve, and innovation moves faster than the literature. Because progress is driven by what’s actually working in and around the OR.

Consensus and Controversy brings together the surgeons and teams shaping the field in real time – refining what works in practice and honest enough to share what doesn’t. For our industry partners, it’s a chance to be part of that dialogue: to listen, exchange ideas, and align innovation with real-world surgical needs.

Attendees will share and learn from real-world experience — the pearls, pitfalls, and practical tips that translate into immediate impact in the OR.

In AHF’s signature vibrant, collegial atmosphere, surgeons and industry come together to challenge assumptions, trade insights, and push each other — and the field — forward. AHF isn’t just an event; it’s a community. Industry is part of the fabric of what we do — part of the conversation, the learning, and the progress we make together. The relationships built here drive innovation and shape the future of anterior hip arthroplasty, one honest conversation at a time.

  • Unmatched Networking Opportunities: Connect with renowned surgeons, healthcare professionals, and innovators from around the globe.

  • Cutting-Edge Research and Insights: Gain exclusive access to groundbreaking research findings and discussions on future trends in hip replacement.

  • Hands-On Learning: Participate in workshops led by experts that offer practical skills and hands-on experience with new tools and technologies.

  • Continuing Medical Education: Earn CME credits while staying up-to-date with the latest in anterior hip procedures and patient care practices.
