ISAKOS

ISAKOS continues to shape the future of arthroscopy, knee surgery, and orthopaedic sports medicine. Founded in 1995 through the merger of the International Arthroscopy Association (IAA) and the International Society of the Knee (ISK), the organization has grown into a truly global community - now uniting more than 4,000 members across 100+ countries.

Guided by a clear mission to advance worldwide education, research, and patient care, ISAKOS collaborates closely with regional and national societies to amplify knowledge exchange and strengthen impact. Its current ISAKOS Strategic Plan outlines ambitious goals to align resources, foster innovation, and drive long-term progress in the field.

A rising force in international medical education, ISAKOS provides a powerful platform where expertise, collaboration, and excellence come together to move orthopaedic sports medicine forward.
