The Confederation of European ORL-HNS is based on three main pillars: the European scientific societies, the European national societies and the UEMS ORL Section and Board. This close collaboration will manifest itself in the International Scientific Committee, headed by Elizabeth Sjorgen. Congress President Marc Remacle acts in close and friendly collaboration with Confederation President Hans E. Eckel. The 15 Subspecialty Societies and 38 National Societies of CEORL-HNS have designed a program outline that reflects all the diversity and specializations that constitute the European ENT community. ENT specialists all over the continent and beyond have different areas of expertise. Taken together, these benefit the medical landscape and the well-being of patients world-wide. Abstracts are one of the main foundations of the scientific program, with abstract submission open from October 1 to December 5 2018. Abstract topics include Facial Plastic Surgery, Head and Neck Surgery, Laryngology/Phoniatrics, Otology/Neurotology, Pediatric Otolaryngology, Rhinology/Allergy, Sleep Surgery and related subjects. The congress is expected to attract more than 3.000 international ENT professionals and will host an extensive industry exhibition. It is still possible for interested companies to apply.
