It is a pleasure to invite you to the 4th International Arthroplasty Conference. 

The start of this series was in Feb 2008 in association with Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Ohio, USA, with an update on hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty. In 2009, there was a focus on hip arthroplasty and bearing surfaces. In 2010 conference, again there was an update on hip, knee and shoulder. 

In this 4th conference, there will be a focus on knee arthroplasty but with a touch on basics and an update on hip, shoulder, ankle and other joints. 

In addition, there will be a symposium on computer assisted orthopaedic surgery (CAOS) which comes as the 6th Middle East CAOS symposium, continuing a series that started in 2005.

Both social and scientific programs at this fascinating beach resort of Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt are enjoyable. We look forward to see you there with your families
