Nagpur has produced many great surgeons. Although ASI Nagpur chapter was revived in 1993 with Dr. V. B. Deshmukh as president and Dr. (Mrs.) Varsha Saggdeo as secretary, the surgeons of yesteryears had come together for organizing big events like MASICON. It was in 1982 that the MASICON was organized for the first time at Nagpur under the leadership of Prof. M. L. Gandhe and Dr. V. D. Choudhary

The association has grown over last two decades with a membership of over 250. The successful organization of Silver Jubilee MASICON in 2003 with Dr. S. Dasgupta as organizing Chairman and Dr. S. P. Matkari as the organizing secretary was the high point in the graph of the association.

The association organizes academic activities for updating the members. It also organizes diagnostic and operative camps at villages and for the poor sections of the society. Cultural programs are held for the members and their families. Late Dr. Inderjit Mitra Memorial State level Surgical Quiz is a unique event and was the first of its kind to be conducted for undergraduates and internees, who come from medical colleges from all over Maharashtra.
