UNA SCELTA TERAPEUTICA O CULTURALE?

CONVEGNO INTERNAZIONALE
5-6 MAGGIO 2012

La tecnica dell’allungamento degli arti si è rivelata, nel corso degli anni, la principale e unica “scelta” terapeutica per le persone affette da acondroplasia. Nell’anniversario dei suoi 25 anni AISAC vuole, attraverso un congresso internazionale, fare il punto con i medici sui numeri, sui risultati, sul “progresso” di tale intervento ma soprattutto confrontarsi insieme alle Associazioni straniere e ai suoi soci ed amici sul valore e sul “significato” di tale scelta.

It is a non-profit association, created by a group of parents who, after years of individual initiatives and efforts, have decided to set up a legally recognized organization. The head office is located in Milan, Italy, but the Association is active on the whole Italian territory, in coordination and cooperation with other national and international Associations and organizations. The Association has 700 achondroplasic members (180 children aged less than 10 years), as well as approximately 589 doctors, who act as advisors, and 776 parents and friends.
