About Scoliosis Week
Welcome to the Scoliosis Week!
The Scoliosis Week was born from a deep commitment to advancing spinal health education and elevating the standard of scoliosis care across the region. Our goal is to bring together surgeons, specialists, and healthcare professionals from Egypt and around the world to exchange knowledge, discuss the latest advancements, and refine their clinical practice.
As we expand this educational journey to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, we remain dedicated to fostering a collaborative community that drives innovation and improves patient outcomes. I invite you to be part of this important mission.

History & Mission
Scoliosis Week was founded under the leadership of the Egyptian Scoliosis Society in 2016 with the vision of creating a specialized educational platform for spine surgeons, orthopedic professionals, and healthcare providers focused on spinal deformities, particularly scoliosis.
Since its inception, Scoliosis Week has evolved into a unique annual event blending scientific sessions, hands-on training, and live surgery broadcasts. It was created to address the growing need for regional spine education and to bridge the gap between theory and practice in scoliosis management.
With its growing success in Egypt, Scoliosis Week is now expanding its mission to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, launching a dedicated series of educational activities to support and connect the spine surgery community across borders.
