Message from the PresidentDear colleagues, friends and members of ESTES,I would like to welcome you all in the name of the European Society for Trauma and Emergency Surgery (ESTES). I would like to thank all ESTESmembers and ESTES officers who have served our society in the past. I would like to especially thank our past president Abe Fingerhut (Presidentof ESTES 2010/2011) and our past vice President Vilmos Vecsei (Vice President of ESTES 2008/2012) who have left the ESTES Board of Directorsas of 15th of May, 2012 with enormous contributions to our society. I would like to thank our immediate past President Ingo Marzi (President ofESTES 2011/2012) for all his collaborative efforts. It is a pleasure to welcome Luke Leenen (President Elect of ESTES 2012/2013) and AriLeppaniemi (Vice President of ESTES 2012/2015) as new members of the ESTES board of directors. Thirteenth European Congress of Trauma andEmergency Surgery was fulfilled with great success during May 12-15, 2012 in Basel, Switzerland. This meeting was of great scientific value withthe participation of more than 1,100 delegates with the meticulous organization of the Swiss Society of General Surgery and Traumatology(SGACT/ SSCGT) and the Swiss Trauma Society (SGTV) and under the Presidency of Dominik Heim and Reto Babst. I believe that as the currentboard of directors of ESTES, we will try to act very actively and efficiently throughout this year. We will try to organize a new fascinating scientificevent during May 04-07, 2013 in Lyon, France for you with enriched topics and lots of new postgraduate courses together with the congressPresident Eric Voiglio.

Korhan TavilogluESTES President2012-2013

ECTES 2013 – Working together to save livesIt is my honour and a privilege to invite you to the 14th European Congress of Trauma and Emergency Surgery (ECTES) in Lyon in 2013.Lyon was founded as Lugdunum in 43 BC and became the capital of Gaul in 27 BC. Our ambition is to make Lyon the world capital of traumaand emergency surgery for one week in May 2013. Trauma has been defined as the neglected disease of modern society. This could also applyto emergency surgery. How surprising to see the difficulties to find a bed or to schedule a trauma or emergency surgery patient in the OR, orthe unfair competition that often arises between emergency and elective cases, recently compounded by budget restrictions.All of us are concerned by trauma and emergency surgery. A change in the culture of trauma and emergency surgery is needed. Leaders havecome forward and must make inroads such that trauma and emergency surgery become foremost in the European setting. Forums during themeetings organized by the European Society for Trauma and Emergency Surgery (ESTES) such as ECTES Lyon 2013 are highly awaited.Trauma and emergency surgery is challenging. Challenging because multidisciplinary management, strongly recommended, has to be wellorganized. Challenging because the best specialist is seldom available when needed, and the surgeon in charge has often but a general surgerybackground. Challenging because very promising mini-invasive techniques and alternatives to surgery often touted as life-saving, require soundindications and execution. Challenging because of ethic issues as for instance futile care and organ retrieval from non-heart beating donors.Challenging because a new speciality called “Acute Care Surgery” is emerging. We plan to deal with all these challenging topics during ECTESLyon 2013.Paramedics, nurses, emergency physicians, anaesthesiologists, intensivists, radiologists and surgeons of different specialities have to continueto work together. They have to know each other to increase efficiency. They need a common culture to make good choices in the right moment.To strengthen this collaboration between all concerned, ESTES is officially inviting other scientific societies to exchange ideas and expertise inthe field of trauma and emergency surgery during ECTES Lyon 2013.The scientific program is designed both for those who work primarily in an emergency setting and for those who need an update as they takeemergency calls. The most eminent experts in Europe and in the World in the fields of prehospital emergency care, emergency medicine, anaesthesiology, disaster and military medicine, radiology, and surgery (general, visceral, orthopaedic,trauma, vascular, thoracic…) will sharetheir knowledge and experience with the audience. Pre and post-congress courses will complete medical education for junior and senior staff.ECTES Lyon 2013 is the ideal place to present research at an international and European level. Working together to save lives is the motto of ECTESLyon 2013. Working together means training together, providing care together, performing research together, making inroads together.Lyon is a wonderful town, with prestigious history, irrigated by two superb rivers the Rhône and the Saône. It is the French capital of gastronomywhere a world known third river flows: the Beaujolais. After very intensive and fruitful conferences, courses and presentations, all of us will beable to take advantage of the Art de vivre lyonnais.Bienvenue à Lyon en mai 2013 !
