The Forum was held successfully on June 3 – 6, 2017, as a satellite conference to the ISAKOS Congress. The 2017 Forum was sponsored collaboratively by ISAKOS, COA, CAOS and CSSM. More than 1,600 Chinese orthopaedic sports medicine surgeons took part in the Forum, and 134 abstracts were accepted as papers. IFOSMA has been recognized as an ISAKOS Approved Course for almost ten years. For the past 14 years, it has been serving as a window for the international exchange of Chinese sports medicine knowledge. IFOSMA has become a very important event for Chinese sports medicine surgeons and is a significant platform for doctors and scholars in China—to help them pursue a more advanced and international exchange of knowledge.
