Over all, our stay at Aspetar was quite useful and we learned a lot from Dr. Philippe Landreau. We had nice accommodation, food, learning and party.
We departed from Doha for Munich on 31 early morning.

ISAKOS WATANABE ARTHROSCOPY TRAVELLING FELLOWS 2015
We visited the Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department which is full of modern equipment and facilities with world class physiotherapists. In the evening, Fawaz took us to watch the Qatar National Basketball Championship at Ali Bin Hamad Stadium where Dr. Landreau arranged VIP pass and seats for us. It was really a fantastic match.
What we learned from Dr. Philippe Landreau:
• ACL reconstruction with Lateral Tenodesis in high level sports (e.g. Soccer) to protect reconstructed ACL, high grade Pivot shift with high rotational instability
• ACL (hamstring) + PCL (Allograft) double reconstruction
• Minimally invasive BTB graft harvesting
• Latarjet for anterior shoulder instability

We arrived in Munich on May 31 in the evening where we were accommodated in a hotel near the hospital. On June 1, we were welcomed by Dr. Andreas Imhoff and his residents. We joined the morning clinical meeting where we had an intense interactive discussion about preoperative complex cases especially high tibial and distal femoral osteotomy.

On May 29, Dr. Landreau invited us for a dinner party at his residence, which was superb, especially with mind blowing French cognac and snacks. We met many hospital staff at the party. On May 30t, Dr. Landreau arranged and sponsored a tour of Doha for us where we visited all the important places, particularly the Qatar Foundation and Museum of Islamic Arts.
We joined the surgical theatre with Andreas and team. We managed to observe many cases on Day 1, particularly ACL reconstruction with femoral tunnel inside-out techniques and Endobutton fixation. After finishing in the surgical theatre, we joined clinics where we really learned a lot about basic physical examination and radiological diagnosis in sports medicine. Dr. Imhoff is an excellent teacher of the diagnostic aspects of sports medicine.
