Pune Trauma Operative Course 2026 – 20th Legacy Edition
It is our privilege to welcome you to the 20th Legacy Edition of the Pune Trauma Operative Course (PTOC 2026).
Over the past two decades, PTOC has established itself as a trusted academic platform committed to structured trauma education, operative decision-making, and practical surgical learning. This milestone edition represents both a celebration of the journey so far and a reaffirmation of the principles on which the course was founded.
The scientific program for PTOC 2026 has been carefully curated to reflect the evolving demands of contemporary trauma practice. It combines live operative sessions, focused symposia on complex and controversial trauma scenarios, hands-on workshops, and interactive formats designed to encourage discussion, critical thinking, and innovation. New initiatives, including platforms for idea-driven problem solving and innovation, complement the established strengths that have defined PTOC over the years.
As an operative course, PTOC continues to place emphasis on real-world application, clarity of surgical strategy, and the sharing of experience that directly informs practice in the operating theatre. Equally, this Legacy Edition acknowledges the invaluable contributions of the mentors, faculty, and participants who have shaped PTOC across twenty editions.
We are honoured to be joined by an exceptional faculty—national and international—whose experience, openness, and commitment to teaching remain central to the success of this course. We also extend a warm welcome to our industry partners, whose support, collaboration, and technological innovations play an important role in advancing trauma care and education.
We thank all delegates for their participation and engagement, and we look forward to three days of meaningful academic exchange, learning, and collaboration.
We wish you a productive and enriching experience at PTOC 2026 – Trauma Legacy: Honouring Excellence, Inspiring the Future.
