During months of preparation, every endeavor has been made by the ESTES Board for ‘Building Bridges’, the guiding theme of this congress, to become reality. For a young and dynamic organization such as ESTES, it is of utmost importance to construct a network of professional and personal relations, which make us stronger and more respected. Therefore, we invited a number of Societies and Organizations, which have similar goals, but are not institutional members of our Society, to join our annual congress. The reaction was overwhelming: fourteen Groups agreed to bring in their experience in the form of Guest Symposia. We welcome them very warmly and are grateful for their input and support. Our utmost gratitude also goes to ATLS-Europe, who organizes an ATLS course in Belgium for the very first time. Similarly, the European Trauma Course will take place as the result of a fruitful cooperation between ESTES and ETC. Chairmen and members of our five sections also contribu- ted substantially to the scientific program with the organization of instructional lecture courses and the choice of internationally respected key-note speakers. Moreover, ESTES’ Disaster and Military Surgery Section offers a satellite course ‘Medical Response to Major Incidents’ with the Mass Casualty Incident Hospital in Utrecht, The Netherlands immediately before the congress. The combination of scientific sessions with these additional events will make the 11th ESTES-Congress a unique and historical one. Special thanks go to Dr. S. Nijs and the colleagues of the Belgian Trauma Society for their hospitality and dedication in the preparation of a superb congress event. We are glad to present you the ‘ESTES international Village’ for the first time. In the village, all institutional member societies will present their history, main goals and future activities on posters. Walking through the village, participants will take note of the scientific and professional activities in other societies and countries. We are very proud to have Prof. Paul Broos and Dr. Michel Baron D’Hooghe as star speakers. Prof. Paul Broos picks up the history of Belgian trauma surgery, Dr. Michel Baron D’Hooghe will show us how ‘Building Bridges’ is realized with international soccer competition. It is a special privilege to honor two outstanding personalities: Prof. Jan Goris form Nijmegen, The Netherlands and Prof. Elias Lambiris from Patras, Greece, for the significance of their life’s work in traumatology and emergency surgery. ESTES takes pride in having both among their honorary members soon. The 11th Congress of Trauma and Emergency Surgery will be an exclusive event for the Belgian trauma surgeons, for our ESTES members and the whole international community. I hope to welcome you personally in Brussels between May 15 and May 18. Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Pol M. Rommens ESTES President 2009 – 2010 2 WELCOME Belgian Trauma Society BUILDING BRIDGES Dear participants of the 11th European Congress of Trauma & Emergency Surgery, it is an honor to welcome you to Brussels, the capital of Belgium, but more importantly the capital of Europe. Together with Prof. Dr. P. M. Rommens, the society’s president, we decided on ‘Building Bridges’ as the theme of this congress. I hope you can find this theme in the different aspects of the congress, most importantly of course in the scientific content, but also in the social events. The most significant reason to attend a congress is its scientific content. We will offer you a mix of instructional lecture courses, free paper sessions, E-poster sessions and guest symposia covering the entire field of Trauma and Emergency surgery. In the instructional lecture courses, world-renowned experts in the fields of skeletal trauma, emergency surgery, military and disaster medicine and visceral trauma will share their expertise with us, thus building reliable bridges between scientific understanding and clinical applicable use. Almost seven hundred abstracts have been submitted for the free paper and E-poster sessions. Only the very best of them have been selected for oral and poster presentation. As the quality of all submitted papers was exceptionally high, the selection has been a very difficult task for the scientific committee. Therefore I want to thank all the members of the committee for their efforts, but even more all the submitting authors for the valuable time and huge efforts they invested in producing work of such high standards. I am sure the international group of enthusiastic scientists presenting their work will provide us with a thorough overview of ongoing research and new insights in the fields of Trauma and Emergency Surgery. Again, I believe that the theme ‘Building Bridges’ will be applicable to the free paper and E-poster sessions, as in the confrontation with other research, new alliances will be built in which we will search together for new solutions for ongoing problems. Thus, based upon the insights we will gain, new treatment protocols will be developed. We are proud that we were also able to build bridges to numerous other scientific societies. We consider it an honor that fourteen scientific societies will organize guest symposia during our conference. We also consider this a sign of ongoing collaboration and mutual respect, of ‘Building Bridges’ from both sides, in order to find the best answers to the scientific questions and therapeutic challenges we are confronted with every day. In the abstract supplement, you can find the reflection of all the hard work all the people mentioned above have invested in this congress. The quality of a congress is determined by its participants, both active and passive. Therefore I want to thank each and every one of you personally for participating in this event. But we do not only want to build professional bridges. We also want to find each other in ongoing and developing friendships. We hope that the social events we have selected will give you the opportunity to enjoy friendship and Belgian hospitality. Welcome to Brussels, and enjoy the 11th European Congress of Trauma and Emergency Surgery!
