Meeting Information

Welcome back to Los Angeles, ISOLS!


The COVID-19 pandemic has brought many challenges for our society and especially all members of the healthcare sector. Also, scientific medical societies, such as the International Society of Limb Salvage, have strongly been impacted by the effects and necessary consequences of actions to overcome this worldwide medical crisis.

The purpose of ISOLS is to promote research, education, and clinical practice related to musculoskeletal tumors and its foremost purpose is to improve patient care related to limb salvage interventions. It also serves as a forum for intellectual exchange among physicians, engineers, scientists, and other persons interested in limb salvage promotes advances in the field of limb salvage and ongoing education of persons engaged in the field of limb salvage.

In pursuing these goals, ISOLS is proud to announce the next General Meeting in Los Angeles, USA, from September 6 to 9, 2022. The biannual meeting was postponed from its initial date in 2021, leading to the Executive Board’s decision to switch the future biannual rhythm to even years.
