Minimally Invasive Surgery can feel anything but minimal when you’re navigating the learning curve, adapting to new instrumentation, and trying to streamline your OR flow. That’s why this session was designed to cut through the noise and provide a clear, experience-driven roadmap for success.
Join members of the Enovis design and development team as they share practical insights on fluoro reduction, room setup, leg positioning, and the real-world challenges that come with mastering MIS.
This isn’t a sales pitch — it’s a straightforward, honest conversation about what to expect, how to prepare, and how to make your MIS journey smoother, safer, and more efficient. Whether you’re new to MIS or refining your approach, this is your opportunity to gain direction, guidance, and support from the people who helped build the tools shaping the future of minimally invasive foot and ankle surgery.
