Dear Colleagues, Esteemed Visitors and Future Orthopedic Surgeons,
Hip and knee arthroplasty represents one of the most effective treatment approaches in modern orthopedic surgery, both in terms of functional recovery and quality of life. This field is undergoing a multidimensional transformation driven by advances in surgical techniques, innovations in implant technology, biomechanical analyses, and especially robotic-assisted surgical systems.
As the Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Association (KADAD), our core mission is to promote evidence-based practices, encourage knowledge sharing at national and international levels, and build a professional solidarity environment grounded in ethical values.
Guided by the principle of continuing education, we value working alongside both expert colleagues in the field and physicians at every stage of training.
Every practice that adds value to public health is built on accurate knowledge, ethical responsibility, and quality education. Our website aims to serve not only as a resource for our colleagues, but also as a reliable reference for individuals seeking trustworthy information about hip and knee prostheses.
Understanding innovative approaches such as robotic arthroplasty is of great importance for patient safety and treatment success.
For our young colleagues continuing their training, arthroplasty will be a field shaped by the most advanced technologies in surgical practice over the coming decades.
- Navigation systems
- AI-assisted planning
- Robotic surgical applications
These technologies require not only clinical competence but also digital literacy and adaptation skills. Building the scientific and practical infrastructure to keep pace with this transformation—together with you—is our primary goal as an association.
We envision this platform not merely as a source of information, but as a professional interaction space open to learning, growing, and shaping the future together.
We are fully confident that this structure, strengthened by your contributions, will build a strong bridge between professional excellence and public benefit.
With regards,
Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Tuncay
KADAD President
