EDUCATION
The Annual Meeting
The AAHKS Annual Meeting provides an in-depth, peer-reviewed program that educates
members on current evidence-based approaches to hip and knee arthroplasty. The Annual
Meeting addresses a wide array of scientific topics, such as implant design, results, surgical
techniques and complications of primary and revision TJA, as well as the latest information
available on socioeconomic and health policy issues affecting our specialty. In addition, the
Annual Meeting provides the opportunity to see the latest products and services specific to
hip and knee surgery and to network with the leading adult reconstruction surgeons from
around the world.
The Journal of Arthroplasty
The Journal of Arthroplasty (JOA) is the official journal of AAHKS. Members find it to be
a valuable resource as it brings together the clinical and scientific foundations for joint
replacement. Members receive the print journal as well as full-text online access to
The JOA for one year with their paid membership dues. One-touch direct access to
The JOA is available for your iPad via a free app.
Arthroplasty Today
The journal Arthroplasty Today brings together the clinical and scientific foundations for
joint replacement of the hip and knee in an open-access, online format. Arthroplasty Today
solicits manuscripts of the highest quality from all areas of scientific endeavor that relate to
joint replacement or the treatment of its complications, including those dealing with patient
outcomes, economic and policy issues, prosthetic design, biomechanics, biomaterials, and
biologic response to arthroplasty. The journal focuses on case reports.
