Sumario:INTRODUCTION: Japan Primary Care Association has launched an international session at annual conference since 2012. Longitudinal characteristics of the presentations were investigated. METHODS: Abstracts of the session were analyzed regarding type of presentation (oral/poster), category (research/clinical case/activity/review), and presenters' geographical location. RESULTS: The numbers of oral and poster presentations significantly increased. The most frequent presentation was research with cross‐sectional survey. Majority of presentations were clinical and less educational research, most of which were by Japanese. CONCLUSION: The numbers of presentations in the international session increased, but the session should be used more rigorously to enhance primary care.
