2023 Scientific Session & Annual Meeting
December 1-2, 2023
Bordeaux, France
Meeting Information
Join us for the 2023 PAS Scientific Session
& Annual Meeting for Personalized Hip and Knee Replacement!
This meeting supports the Society’s goal of bringing together the world’s most innovative surgeons alongside the most forward-thinking companies in order to advance the state of personalized arthroplasty to all patients, promoting the evolution of arthroplasty through education and discussion.
We will accomplish that through presentations by the brightest and most-forward thinking surgeons and engineers from around the world.
During this meeting, we will create clarity around the variations of the theme of personalized hip and knee surgery, while also considering the repercussions from surgical techniques, implant design and management of complex deformity in our space.
