Dates & deadlines
Abstract submission deadline: 28 March 2021 (extended to 14 April!)
Notification of abstract acceptance/refusal: end of June 2021
Deadline for registration and payment of registration fee for presenting authors: 16 August 2021
Only electronically submitted abstracts are accepted.
Abstracts must not exceed 250 words in length.
Abstracts must be written in English. We highly recommend that the abstract is proofread for spelling and grammar errors by a fluent English speaker before submission. Abstracts written in poor English have less chance of being accepted.
Authors’ first and last names must be spelled out in full. Please do not use any initials.
Do NOT use all upper-case letters when entering your abstract.
The abstract's title or authors' names/institutions must NOT be inserted in the 'Content' field.
No graphs, tables, photographs, or slide presentations are accepted.
Abstracts will be published as one paragraph, so they should not be broken into multiple paragraphs. If you wish to use headings within your abstract, such as Introduction, Methods, Results, etc., they should be added at the beginning of a sentence within the paragraph and a colon (:) should be inserted after each heading. Example:
Introduction: xxxx xxxx xxxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxx. Methods: xxxx xxx xxxx xxx xxx xxx xxxx. Results: xxxxx xxxx xxxx xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx....etc. |
The material submitted must not have been published or presented at any national or international meeting before this one.
Abstracts must be written in good and clear English.
Submission of an abstract implies that the presenting author will register for and attend the Congress in Budapest to present the abstract either as an oral presentation or as an e-poster if it is accepted. Certificates of Presentation will not be issued to presenters who do not attend the Congress and give their presentation(s) in the relevant session(s).
The Programme Committee reserves the right to change the topic and the form of presentation (oral/e-poster) of the abstract or to reject it.
As a result of the continuing uncertainty regarding travel worldwide, we are extending the deadline for presenting authors until 11 August 2021. We hope that this will give as many surgeons as possible the opportunity to make the decision to join us either online or in-person and give their presentations at the 41st SICOT Orthopaedic World Congress.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The presenting author of an accepted abstract (oral and e-poster) must register and pay the congress registration fee by 14 July 2021 (extended to 16 August!) to have his/her abstract included in the Final Programme. The Congress Secretariat will not check if co-authors have registered. Presenting authors must register using the same SICOT account used to submit their abstracts.
