Welcome from the Co-Chairs

The International Symposium on Children’s Orthopedics (ISCO) was created with a simple but ambitious goal: to build a truly international educational forum in pediatric orthopaedics.

ISCO brings together leading experts and thought leaders from across the globe, representing different regions, healthcare systems, and approaches to care. Rather than focusing on one subspecialty or one geographic perspective, the program spans the breadth of pediatric orthopaedics and combines current evidence with the practical experience of an exceptional international faculty.

What makes ISCO different is how we learn together. Through focused lectures, challenging case discussions, lively controversies and debates, and hands-on workshops, the program is designed around the decisions we face every day in caring for children.

Whether you are early in your career or an experienced pediatric orthopaedic surgeon, ISCO offers a unique opportunity to learn directly from world leaders, compare approaches from around the globe, and build relationships within an international community.

We invite you to join us in Istanbul and be part of this unique educational experience.
