About MISSABCON 2026

MISSABCON 2026 marks a landmark moment in the evolution of minimally invasive spine surgery in India. This special edition is being hosted by the Chennai Ortho Spine Society (COSS) and brings together three major scientific meetings under one roof:

• 26th PASMISS (Pan-Asian Society of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeons)
• 12th MISSABCON (Annual Meeting of the Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeons Association of Bharat)
• 5th COSSCON (Annual Meeting of the Chennai Ortho Spine Society)

For the first time, these three academic pillars unite to create a 10-country conclave in India, bringing together leading spine experts from ten nations across Asia and beyond. This makes MISSABCON 2026 one of the most diverse and globally connected MISS events ever held in the country.

MISSABCON 2026 is not just a conference – it is a collaborative scientific festival where ideas, skills, and innovations from across Asia and the world converge. By combining PASMISS, MISSABCON, and COSSCON, the event offers:

• A unified platform for regional and global MISS leaders
• A richer, more diverse scientific program
• Expanded opportunities for networking, mentorship, and collaboration
• A broader range of workshops, live surgeries, and research discussions

• International faculty from across Asia, Europe, and the Americas
• Live and video-assisted surgeries featuring advanced MISS and endoscopic techniques
• Hands-on cadaver labs for real-world skill building
• Cutting-edge sessions on robotics, navigation, AI-assisted planning, and novel implants
• Scientific paper presentations, awards, and interactive case discussions
• Industry exhibition showcasing next-generation technology and instrumentation

• Orthopaedic and neurosurgeons
• Endoscopic and MISS practitioners
• Spine fellows, postgraduate trainees, and early-career surgeons
• Rehabilitation specialists and OR professionals
• Medical technology and device innovators

MISSABCON 2026 brings together the strengths of MISSAB, PASMISS, and COSS into a single, powerful platform. It promises four days of learning, collaboration, and forward-looking discussions that will help shape the next decade of minimally invasive spine surgery.
