OUR HISTORY

The "Society of Preventive Hip Surgery" was founded in Ankara, Turkey, in 2012 to bring together the efforts to develop and disseminate scientific knowledge on hip joint preservation in its various affections and disorders. Constitution states that society's primary goal is to advance the knowledge and treatment of hip disorders and improve the lives of patients with various hip disorders. In this specific focus of interest, the society is proud of its history as being the first organization ever founded in the field of hip preservation.

Since its foundation, the society has been fully recognized as a partner society and regularly cooperated with the TOTBİD (Turkish Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology) in various scientific activities of symposiums, hip arthroscopy courses, cadaver courses on adult and pediatric hip, webinars and live surgeries. The society is an academic membership organization that currently has 90 active members, comprising well-known orthopaedic surgeons, physical therapists and scientists whose practice and research orientation mainly focused on hip preservation. Many are internationally recognized opinion leaders, mentors, researchers, and educators, but society recruits young members at all career stages as a dynamic scientific force.

Today, with over 10 years of leading performance, Turkey's Society of Preventive Hip Surgery has emerged as a significant educational organization for the benefit of patients and its members.
