APAS HISTORY

A small group of twenty orthopaedic arthroplasty surgeons from the Asia-Pacific region met on the Gold Coast of Queensland, in Australia, in 1997 to discuss the need for a scientific body to foster and represent the academic and professional needs of the region. The Asia Pacific Arthroplasty Society Incorporated – APAS – was born out of that meeting with Wui K Chung the founding chairman. Ray Randle was elected the 1^st President of the society and Chit Ranawat honored the society by accepting to be the Patron of the society.
