MESSAGE FROM THE
PRESIDENT
MESSAGE FROM THE
CONGRESS CHAIRMAN
Dear SAOA Members, Colleagues and Guests
Welcome to the Berg and the 2015
Congress of the SAOA.
Welcome to the SAOA’s 61st Annual Scientific Meeting. Welcome
to the beautiful Drakensberg mountains, another exciting
tourist destination.
I would like to extend a warm welcome to the Carousel
Presidents, their partners, the African Orthopaedics Association
Presidents present and to our international guest speakers:
Peter Choong from Melbourne Australia, Ian Harding from
Bristol in the United Kingdom and Rodrigo Pesantez from
Columbia. They will all participate and contribute to ensure
that this conference will be a memorable one.
The theme of this meeting is: “Doing right the first time”. It is
aimed at taking us back to the basics with regards to clinical
skills, technical skills, ethics and professionalism while
sowing the seed of social accountability. We look forward to
a thought-provoking engagement with the speakers and our
colleagues.
FP Du Plessis assisted by the Congress Committee, the SAOA
secretariat and ICE Solution have put together a stimulating
and exciting educational and social programme. I thank them
for their effort.
The Orthopaedic Trade Industry will have a strong presence.
Please appreciate their support by visiting their exhibits.
Welcome to the Champagne Conference Centre and I hope
you enjoy the meeting. Enjoy the educational component, the
social activities and fellowship of colleagues.
It has been an honour to serve as president of the SAOA.
Regards,
Mkhululi “Mac” Lukhele
President:
SOUTH AFRICAN ORTHOPAEDIC ASSOCIATION
Although the main purpose of the meeting is education,
we also have the rare opportunity for group discussions of
professional and business matters of mutual importance.
As a bonus we can relax at the end of the day with friends
and colleagues in this retreat from busy urban life, with its
clear air and magnificent scenery.
The scientific programme has something for everyone.
Presentations covering a wide range of topics will keep us
up to date in areas of orthopaedics which we may seldom
practise, but are interesting and still need to know. The
Instructional Courses have excellent programmes and guest
speakers, with Ian Harding for Spines, Peter Choong for
Tumours and Infections and Rodrigo Pesantez for Trauma.
CPD has been well catered for in 3 sessions providing 6
Ethics points.
We are grateful to the delegates submitting free papers
as well as our Visiting Presidents who are taking part in
the programme by giving lectures and conducting panel
discussions with registrars.
To round things off, there is an interesting variety of activities
on the accompanying persons programme.
My thanks to the rest of the Congress Committee, Leana of
SAOA, and the ladies of ICE Solution; they did all the hard
work while I made approving noises. I am sure you will
enjoy the results of their efforts.
Best wishes
John Shipley

Location
Situated at the southern tip of the African continent, South Africa
has a land area of 1,3 million square km (500,000 square miles),

by South African territory in the southeast is the mountain
kingdom of Lesotho. South Africa’s climate runs from temperate
to sub-tropical, its land-scapes range from stark deserts and
spectacular mountains to lush grasslands and forests, and its

the world.
Wildlife
