Advancing Paediatric Orthopaedic Care

EPOS was established in 1981 in Paris by a pioneering group of five paediatric orthopaedic surgeons. The inaugural EPOS meeting, also held in Paris, brought together just 13 surgeons. Today, the society has grown into a thriving global community of over 700 surgeons, dedicated to enhancing the quality of care for children worldwide.
