The 22nd annual scientific conference for APAS will be convened in Bali on the 24th – 26th August 2022. After a very successful live meeting in Xiamen, China in 2019 followed by a totally Virtual ASM in 2021 with multiple live surgeries we are now planning to reconvene in Bali for the first face to face meeting in 3 years with an equally academic and stimulating scientific program on one of Indonesia’s most beautiful islands, Bali. The conference venue will be at the Bali International Convention Centre in Nusa Dua. The 22nd annual conference will see APAS combine with other societies including the Indonesian Hip Knee Society and the Asia Pacific Knee Society to deliver a world best event. We are hoping you will join us in making APAS 2022 a successful meeting and an opportunity to reconnect with our global colleagues in a face-to-face conference in beautiful surrounds that will recharge the batteries.
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 1st President of the society and Chit Ranawat honored the society by accepting to be the Patron of the society.
