The BMBSpine Meeting was held in Budapest for the sixth time on November 10-11, 2017. The meeting was attended by close to two hundred participants.
The main topics of the yearly international conference were: Questions Concerning Current Spinal Oncology and Problems of the Ageing Spine. Time was allotted for forums on innovative techniques and for joint evaluation of the open and often confrontative opinions
Among the thirty invited international speakers were the leading spine surgeons of China and Korea and, in addition to the eminent American scientists, the top professionals in European spinal tumor surgery also spoke at the conference.
The November, 2017 edition of the journal, Gerincgyógyászati Szemle, came off the presses in time for the conference. This is the first edition ever published in Hungarian and English.
The Chairman of the spine meeting was Peter Paul Varga. Co-Chairmen were Stefano Boriani (Italy) and Stefan Schaeren (Switzerland).
Members of the Organizing Committee were Peter Paul Varga, Márton Rónai and Áron Lazáry.
