Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS), we are pleased to present abstract highlights from the AOFAS Winter Meeting 2025, January 16 to 19 in Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. The meeting brought together orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeons and allied health professionals from around the world for the purpose of advancing education and research in the United States and abroad.
Although some of the research studies presented at the conference have been published in the academic literature, many others may not be published for some time. To help bridge the gap between presentation and publication, the AOFAS has partnered with Sage Publishing to provide select abstracts from the conference for practitioners seeking to learn how the data presented at the conference might affect their practice.
Abstracts for all meeting podium and e-poster presentations will subsequently be published open access in the journal Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics. All AOFAS members and meeting registrants will also have access to recorded meeting sessions in the OnDemand Education Center (ONE), when available.
We hope that you enjoy these AOFAS conference highlights and will find the information useful to your practice. We welcome your thoughts on this initiative and hope that you will participate in the Annual Meeting 2025, September 10 to 13 in Savannah, Georgia. You can learn more at www.aofas.org/annualmeeting.
