Changing the Way We Learn Surgery: The Silent Revolution of VideoACCART
Every revolution begins with a simple idea: sharing knowledge in a better way.
What began as a vision—to make joint surgery teaching and understanding possible through the universal language of video—has now evolved into a movement transforming surgical education across Latin America.
VideoACCART is no longer just a journal. It is a meeting point where science, technology, and the passion for teaching converge.
In a world overflowing with information but lacking in quality, our mission has remained clear: to expand knowledge while ensuring that every video, every technique, and every publication represents the excellence, ethics, and scientific truth our patients deserve.
Artificial intelligence, digital editing, and international collaboration are no longer the future—they are an essential part of the medical present. That is why, in this new edition, we reaffirm that surgical learning must be interactive, visual, and peer-reviewed.
We want every surgeon, resident, and researcher to find here a community that shares their curiosity—one that questions, analyzes, and proposes.
At VideoACCART, we believe that surgical education is not something to be observed—it is something to be lived.
Our authors do not merely show procedures; they explain them in depth, compare techniques, present outcomes, and foster academic debate. Each publication is an open class—an opportunity to learn from detail, from technical gesture, from the reasoning behind every intraoperative decision.
Looking back, we can proudly say that we have built a bridge between generations: from the masters who share their experience to the young surgeons who find in video their best learning tool.
And looking forward, we see a horizon full of possibilities—augmented reality, surgical simulators, AI-video integration, and personalized medical education.
VideoACCART will continue to be a pioneer, not only for its content but for its purpose: to let Latin American joint surgery speak with its own voice—and to ensure that voice is heard around the world.
Thank you for being part of this silent revolution that is changing the way we learn, teach, and practice surgery.
