Share Your Work at AHF 2026: Submissions Now Open

AHF 2026: Where real ideas get a real audience.

AHF 2026 is your chance to showcase ideas, insights, and innovations that can help move anterior hip surgery forward. Whether you’re a practising surgeon, Fellow, Resident, researcher, or you are exploring new ways to improve care, we want to see what you’re working on.

AHF is built on real-world experience: what’s working, what isn’t, and the lessons learned along the way. Submitting your abstract or ePoster lets you share those insights with a community that values practical ideas over theory and honest discussion over ego.

It’s also a great way to increase the visibility of your work, connect with surgeons and peers from around the world, and contribute to the conversations that shape our field. You’ll get feedback that’s useful, make connections that last, and become part of a community that thrives on sharing knowledge openly.

We are accepting ePoster submissions covering all aspects of hip arthroplasty. Show us what you are working on, what you are learning, and what you are seeing in and around the OR.
