41st German-Austrian-Swiss Congress for Sports Traumatology & Sports Medicine from 12.2.-20.2.2027 Olympiakongresszentrum Seefeld.

Seefeld, a traditional host of the Olympic Winter Games and Nordic World Championships in the heart of the Alps, has stood for sporting excellence, international encounters, and medical progress for decades. The Olympiakongresszentrum, with its unique location and modern infrastructure, offers ideal conditions for vibrant professional exchange. In this inspiring environment, experts from orthopedics, trauma surgery, sports medicine, physiotherapy, exercise science, and related disciplines come together to present current findings, critically discuss them, and jointly develop new perspectives.

The central focus of this year's congress is on the further development of orthopedics and sports traumatology. The differentiated diagnostics of acute and chronic injuries of the musculoskeletal system have made significant progress in recent years. Modern imaging techniques, functional tests, and biomechanical analyses allow for an increasingly precise assessment of muscle, tendon, cartilage, and ligament structures. Based on this, innovative surgical and conservative therapy concepts will be presented that enable individualized treatment and a faster return to sporting activities.

The integration of digital technologies also opens up new perspectives in orthopedics and sports traumatology. Wearables, sensor-based analyses, and data-driven training control enable continuous monitoring of load and recovery. Artificial intelligence supports
