The Korean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society
The Korean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society is promoting fellowship among members through research and academic exchanges while diagnosing and treating orthopedic musculoskeletal tumors (bone tumor, soft tissue tumor, sarcoma cancer, bone cancer).
Greetings
Dear members of the Korean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society
The new year of 2025 has arrived. The Korean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (KMSTS) is a society that is small in size compared to other orthopedic societies, but it is proud to be an society that handles a very important field that is directly related to the lives of patients due to the nature of the disease. It is widely known as an society where members have deep camaraderie and share their experiences and trial and error.
Our society has continuously developed through the efforts of many seniors and colleagues, and this year marks its 35th anniversary. I would like to express my gratitude once again for the hard work of many teachers who are struggling in the field as helpers of patients overcoming diseases in a special division that solves life-related problems such as tumors while simultaneously restoring the original function of orthopedics.
In 2025, we will do our best not only to promote academic exchanges among members, but also to improve fellowship among members. In addition. We will also do our best to prepare for the APMSTS scheduled to be held in Busan in 2027. I wish all of our members peace and good health this year.
May the year ahead bring tranquility and good health to all our members.
January 2025,
Kap Jung Kim, M.D., PhD
