Future meetings will be based on the need to discuss posterolateral reconstruction techniques, cost savings in the operating room, the management of multiligamentary injuries in one or two stages (one acute and one delayed), with the help of allografts and also with the potential indication of osteotomies and the need to objectify and measure the instability degrees.
Socially, the well-known "Espicha Asturiana" dinner was a meeting highlight and the perfect closure to the meeting. The atmosphere of involvement and interaction among the attendees, along with the brilliant display of the surgical techniques by the participating surgeons, all contributed to the success of the 2017 Gijón Knee Sports Meeting.
