The “Difficult Cases 2.0” conference will be held in Uzhhorod

On December 20, 2025, one of the key events of the year in the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery will take place in Uzhhorod — the “Live Surgery Transcarpathian: Difficult Cases 2.0” conference.

The organizer is the Lita Plus plastic surgery clinic, with the support of UPRADAS — Ukrainian Plastic Reconstructive Aesthetic Dermatosurgeons Association.

The event will bring together more than 100 plastic and reconstructive surgeons, dermatologists, and dermatosurgeons from all over Ukraine to share practical experience, discuss complex clinical cases, and present new approaches to treatment.

During the conference, cases of reconstructive surgery performed by the military will be analyzed.

In addition to the main scientific program, participants can expect discussion panels, practical case studies, and professional networking.

For the second time, the Difficult Cases 2.0 conference will be a unique platform for lively professional dialogue, where more than 20 speakers will analyze clinical cases from their own practice, complex cases, and solutions.

“We have created a format where doctors can learn from other doctors. This is what shapes the new quality of medicine — when the professional environment does not compete, but develops together,” notes Sergey Derbak, founder of the Lita Plus clinic and president of the UPRADAS association.

Speakers at the event include Sergey Derbak, Ruslan Gumenny, Alexander Karpinsky, Ilya Kirichenko, Alexander Turkevich, Sergey Romanyuk, Vladimir Shapovaluk, Evgeny Simulik, Denis Pominchuk, Alexander Pasechnik, Vasily Pasechnik, Anna Barinova, Irina Shmygina, and other leading surgeons of Ukraine.

Traditionally, the event will take place in Uzhhorod, at the Camelot hotel complex.
