Nepal Arthroplasty Society

Advancing Excellence in Joint Replacement Surgery Through Education, Research, and Professional Development

About NAS

Hip and knee arthroplasty was introduced in Nepal in the early 1990s and has since seen a steady increase over the last two decades, proliferating both within and beyond the Kathmandu Valley. With many surgeons and institutions now offering state-of-the-art arthroplasty services in Nepal, the time had come to establish a society that represents the past, present, and future of arthroplasty in the country.

Initially formed as a subcommittee under the Nepal Orthopedic Association (NOA) in 2020, the Nepal Arthroplasty Society (NAS) was officially inaugurated on January 1, 2024, with the vision of creating an umbrella organization and a platform for all arthroplasty surgeons of Nepal. Since its inception, NAS has taken a proactive role in leading academic activities, providing a forum for collaboration and advancement in arthroplasty, and fostering affiliation among arthroplasty surgeons across Nepal.
