We , through ReVision 2020 not only taught doctors on how to tackle the complications of a revision surgery , but also the measures which can be taken during the primary surgery in order to prevent recurrences . This will ensure that medical resources are not wasted and at the same time , people do not have to waste their monetary resources on multiple recurrent treatments and surgeries to get cured of their condition . "
Initially planned for March 2020 , the workshop had to be postponed due to the Covid pandemic . " Covid - 19 was a huge blow to us since we were forced to cancel this big event at the very last moment after all the arrangements had been made . We discussed briefly if we should stick to the same theme this year or choose a new topic entirely . But we all agreed that this is a topic which is vital and cannot be skipped .
