The Association for the Study of Internal Fixation

The Association for the Study of Internal Fixation (AO ASIF) was initially conceived by Maurice E. Müller and founded in 1958 by Martin Allgöwer, Maurice E. Müller, Robert Schneider and Hans Willenegger. The aim of the founders was to study the biomechanical prerequisites and pitfalls of internal fixation. In view of early work by pioneers like the brothers Lambotte, as well as Robert Danis, anatomic reduction, stable fixation, atraumatic surgical technique and early mobilization seemed to be the most reasonable working hypothesis.

From the beginning, the founding members recognized the importance of teaching and training for surgeons and operating room personnel. Since the first courses in the early 1960's, teaching activity has increased worldwide and continues to this day. In North America, AO ASIF educational activities are presented by the AO North America Continuing Medical Education organization.
