I had the privilege of being invited by the Saudi Spine Society to deliver a keynote talk on the evolution of sagittal alignment of the spine. It was an incredible opportunity to dive deep into a topic that continues to shape the future of spine care.
In addition, I had the pleasure of presenting on optimizing patients prior to scoliosis and spinal deformity surgery, sharing strategies to improve outcomes and enhance patient care.
The highlight of the event, however, was reconnecting with old friends and meeting new colleagues who are as passionate about advancing spine surgery as I am. I was truly impressed by the complexity of cases being tackled in Saudi Arabia and the exceptional quality of care being provided.
Grateful for the opportunity to exchange ideas and be inspired by the innovative work being done globally.
