A Message From Our President

As the 6th President of the International Board of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (IBSES), I am pleased to welcome you to our new website. IBSES is proud to serve as the sponsoring organization of the triennial International Congress of Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ICSES), bringing together a truly global community of shoulder and elbow specialists.

This site is designed as a shared resource for collaboration, learning, and the exchange of ideas across our international network. I encourage you to engage with its content and contribute your insights as we continue to grow.

Your feedback is important to us, and we welcome your suggestions to help improve this platform.

Thank you for being part of our community. I look forward to seeing you in Vancouver in September 2026.
