Great days in Seattle at the IFFAS–AOFAS 2026 meeting—a great opportunity to reconnect with our global foot and ankle community, share with old and new friends, and learn from outstanding colleagues from around the world. It was also a great opportunity to present and discuss our research projects and the advances we have been making together with our academic group from Clínica Las Condes, Hospital del Trabajador, and Clínica Universidad Los Andes. These meetings remind us of the value of collaboration, exchanging ideas, and working together to continue improving the care we provide to our patients. See you again in Sydney!

What changes when we stop looking at anatomy only in static conditions and start understanding it under load? The International WBCT Society (IWBCTS) is returning to AOFAS & IFFAS 2026 in Seattle with “New Avenues for Weightbearing CT Applications” another opportunity to bring the international orthopaedic community together around the evolving science and clinical applications of WBCT. Our continued participation in major international scientific meetings reflects a core part of our mission: creating spaces where research, clinical experience and technological advances can converge to broaden understanding and stimulate meaningful scientific discussion. At AOFAS & IFFAS 2026, the conversation continues examining how weightbearing 3D imaging can contribute to the assessment of alignment and deformity, preoperative planning and clinical decision-making. For the IWBCTS, being present again is not simply about participation. It is about contributing to the scientific dialogue, challenging established perspectives and connecting the people advancing knowledge in musculoskeletal imaging. 📅 Friday, September 18, 2026 🕚 11:00 AM 📍 Room 604, Level 6 | Seattle Convention Center 🇺🇸 Seattle, Washington Save the date and join us at AOFAS & IFFAS 2026. “Advancing Musculoskeletal Imaging through Weightbearing CT” 🌐 https://wbctsociety.org 📲 Instagram: @wbctsociety @curvebeamai @ossiofiber @strykerfoot.ankle @newclipusa @taycobrace #WeightBearingCT #Orthopaedics #FootAndAnkle #MusculoskeletalImaging #3DImaging

Here are intraop & postop images of yesterday's case by Dr. Gregory Foote (@Doctor.Foote) and MercyOne (@MercyOne_Iowa). BUNION DEFORMITY IN 53F PROCEDURE: 1st metatarsocuneiform arthrodesis with patient-matched cutting guides and lateral soft-tissue release (Lapidus). Osteotomy of 1st proximal phalanx. HPI: The patient is a 53-year-old female with a history of rheumatoid arthritis who presents with localized pain over a prominent medial bump on her medial right foot. Her symptoms have been increasingly limiting, resulting in a restriction of her functional capacity and baseline activity level. She is highly active and an avid runner. PMH: Past medical history is notable for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). PE: On focused physical exam of her right foot, there is a visible hallux valgus deformity. There is mild instability at the tarsometatarsal (TMT) joint. There are overlying skin changes of the medial 1st MTP joint with erythema and tenderness. There is no pain with passive flexion or extension of the 1st MTP joint. How would you manage this patient?

Muy feliz de haber participado del 11’ FLAMECIPP y 26’ SAMECIPP, un encuentro que una vez más reunió a grandes colegas y amigos de la especialidad. Tuve la oportunidad de presentar un trabajo en modalidad podio y de moderar una mesa de expertos de @aotraumalatam junto a referentes de nivel mundial, experiencias que representan un enorme desafío y aprendizaje. Quiero destacar también la excelente organización del evento @dr.arrondo.cepp y @fpablosegura , y sobre todo, la camaradería que caracteriza a este tipo de encuentros y que considero un valor innegociable. Agradecido por compartir estos días con amigos de siempre y con nuevas amistades que enriquecen nuestro camino profesional. ¡Nos vemos en la próxima edición!
