ASEAN ORTHOPAEDIC RESEARCH SOCIETY

Paediatric Orthopaedic surgeons in a few South-East Asia nations have been actively participating in medical outreach programs for the benefit of the children with musculoskeletal conditions and organising courses or workshops to train local surgeons to perform regular paediatric orthopaedic procedures in this region. The group has collaborated with POSNA to have the first biennial training course starting in 2005 (Figure 1), and have also actively participated in the travelling fellowship organised by Asia Pacific Paediatric Orthopaedic Society (APPOS) since its first program in 2008.
