POA (Pakistan Orthopedic Association) Arthroscopy Forum was established in 2014 to develop arthroscopy and sports surgery in Pakistan. POA Arthroscopy Forum is committed to the growth and development of the orthopaedic fraternity, Arthroscopy and Sports Surgery in Pakistan. It is constantly taking measures to ensure excellence in the community.
POA Arthroscopy Forum was formed by the POA Board headed by President POA, Prof M Parwez Anjum and Secretary-General, Dr Masoor Umer on 8th March 2014 with Dr Khalid M Shah as Chairman while Dr Khalid S Alam, Dr Shams Tabraizi and Dr Kamran Butt were nominated as committee members.
With the passage of time and growth, POA Forum members and faculty invested their time and expertise to disseminate the knowledge and techniques of Arthroscopic Surgery.
Therefore they decided to establish it as a society and work on a higher level. Therefore, PASSS is a sub-speciality forum of POA tasked with the development/training of Arthroscopy and Sports medicine injuries to the Orthopaedic community in particular or other professionals in general.
