Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It’s a real pleasure to welcome you to Dubai to the 12^th Annual Middle East Orthopaedic Paediatric Society (MEPOS) Conference. The 2025 annual meeting brings together the experience of surgeons, allied health professionals, and researchers from across the region and around the world. The invited Speakers will share their unique and remarkable expertise in the fields of congenital, acquired, and neuromuscular paediatric orthopaedic conditions.

Over the next few days, we’ll explore an exciting program covering neuromuscular orthopaedics, gait analysis, congenital limb differences, spine deformities, and advanced reconstructive surgery. The contribution of free paper sessions showcase the rich diversity of ideas and experiences that make our community so driven by the highest standard of care.

This year’s hands-on workshops promise to be especially engaging featuring sessions on gait analysis, surgical techniques on dry bone, and the first dedicated paediatric hand splinting workshop in the region. These practical learning opportunities embody the spirit of MEPOS: collaboration, innovation, and shared growth.

Beyond the lectures and discussions, MEPOS continues to serve as a true community of purpose, a place where mentorship, friendship, and professional exchange come together to advance our shared mission. Together, we continue to raise the standard of care for the children and families we serve. We hope these days in Dubai leave you inspired, connected, and re-energized for the work ahead.

Welcome to MEPOS 2025!

Warm regards,
