To motivate the improvement and development of minimally invasive surgery of orthopaedics in China, minimally invasive spine surgery association, one of the branches under the Chinese Medical Association, was established in 2003. The minimally invasive orthopedic meeting is exclusively held in COA each year. With the support of the association and the mutual efforts of committee members, the minimally invasive orthopedic techniques have been burgeoning in mainland China.
In September this year, professor ZHOU Yue, the chairman of the minimally invasive spine surgery association, gathered the four vice chairmen and some committee members to Chongqing and held the manuscript meeting for annual meeting of the association in COA. The schedule, invited speakers and article categories etc., of orthopedic meeting were reached and determined after a long discussion. The minimally invasive orthopedic meeting in COA 2012 lasts two and a half days. On behalf of the organizing committee, we invite some well-known minimally invasive spinal experts all-around the world to give guesting speech, morning course and lunchon symposium in COA. The meeting consists of 14 symposiums, including MISS for lumbar disc herniation, discogenic low back pain and lumbar stenosis, MIS fusion technique for lumbar degenerative disease, MIS technique for spinal tumor, tuberculosis and deformity, MIS technique for spinal trauma, MISS for cervical spine diseases, imaging and navigation techniques and MISS for limb and pelvic disorder.
The minimally invasive orthopedic meeting in COA 2012 represents a multidisciplinary field not only in clinical application in minimally invasive surgery techniques and treatment, but also in discussing the development and application in high techniques of digitalization intellectualization with abiding care interest on spine. I confirm that academic communication and studying experience in COA plays a vital role in the progress and development of minimally invasive orthopaedic techniques in China.
