The International Society for Paediatric Plastic Surgery a New IPRAS Society Andreas Yiacoumettis IPRAS Deputy General Secretary Yet another idea of our President Prof Marita Eisenmann Klein is well under way. After discussions with several colleagues, a decision was taken to proceed with the founding of a Society which will promote Paediatric Plastic Surgery worldwide. At the inaugural meeting held in Santiago, Chile, during the 17th World Congress, the turnout of colleagues interested in this particular topic of our Specialty was beyond expectation. In all, over seventy declared their interest in becoming members of this new IPRAS Society. A vivid discussion developed, creating a climate of enthusiasm and demonstrating the willingness to work towards strengthening the role of this topic in the management of children with deformities and functional or aesthetic problems. Our specialty is credited with improvising, developing and establishing methods and techniques widely employed by Plastic Surgeons and colleagues from other specialties. During this meeting the provisional Bylaws were presented by the Deputy General Secretary Prof Andreas Yiacoumettis and they were accepted with minor changes. Further deliberations will take place after receiving comments from the members via email communication. It was also unanimously decided that the first scientific meeting will take place next year in Turkey with Prof Guler Gursu as the Congress President, but the dates and the location will be announced later. During this congress the General Assembly will convene officially for the first time to approve the Bylaws and elect the Executive Committee. All members interested in becoming members of IPRAS/ ISPPS please contact the IPRAS executive management office at : maria.petsa@zita-congress.gr; During the inaugural meeting in Santiago, it was also decided that the temporary administration of the IPRAS/ ISPPS will be in the hands of the following members: Guler Gursu (Turkey) Dan Enescu (Romania) Ashok Gupta (India) Nelson Piccolo (Brazil) Andreas Yiacoumettis (Greece) The founding of International Society of Paediatric Plastic Surgery, Santiago, Chile, March 2013 26 IPRAS Journal www.ipras.org Issue 12
IPRAS Trainees Association - IPRAS-TA: Santiago, Chile. Benjamin Khoda MBChB, MRCS (Eng) Plastic Surgery Specialist Registrar Oxford and Wessex Training Programme, UK Ondrej Mestak Department of Plastic Surgery 1st Medical Faculty Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic The 17th World Congress for IPRAS took place in Santiago, Chile from 24th February to 1st March 2013. The congress saw high attendance with trainees and Faculty from diverse backgrounds sharing and enhancing knowledge. During the Congress, IPRAS-TA held two successful meetings which enabled us to raise awareness of the newly formed IPRAS-TA and to recurit National Delegates. It was an opportunity for the Executive Committee to meet and expand on the ideas created during the launch of IPRAS-TA in November 2012. IPRAS-TA EXCO members and our President Prof. Eisenmann-Klein Marita during the conference dinner at 17th IPRAS world congress. The association has made tremendous progress in only a short period and we will continue to work hard and champion the voice of trainees worldwide. The first three months of the year 2013 were very fruitful for IPRAS-TA. We continued developing our projects within the Executive Comittee, searching for new National Delegates, establishing the IPRAS - TA webpage, and organizing scholarships and exchange programs. The biggest achievement was undoubtedly the launch of a brand new webpage within the main domain of IPRAS (www.ipras.org/residents-trainees). This webpage is devoted to the IPRAS - TA. You can find basic information about our society here, lists of upcoming meetings, our by-laws, and information about members of Executive Comitee including their contact details. This webpage contains a questionnaire evaluating plastic surgery training in different IPRAS countries. We highly encourage all plastic surgery trainees to participate in this survey. In an effort to achieve greater participation from various IPRAS member countries, we openly approached representatives of National Societies from countries not yet represented in IPRAS-TA to nominate a National Delegate. The IPRAS-TA National Delegate will thus be the link between IPRAS-TA and the respective National Society. During the IPRAS world congress in Chile, our Chairperson, Sarah Lorenz presented provisional results of the trainees survey and the aims, vision, outcomes and progress made by IPRAS-TA. At the first meeting, which took place on Monday 25th of February, we were honoured by the presence of IPRAS President Professor Marita Eisenmann-Klein, IPRAS General Secretary Nelson Piccolo, and Deputy General Secretary Andreas Yiacoumettis. We are grateful that the IPRAS Executive Committee has shown tremendous enthusiasm in supporting IPRAS-TA and have reassured their continued support. Many trainees especially from South America attended the meeting and supported the mission of IPRAS - TA . We had trainee participants from 14 countries (Argentina, Czech Republic, Colombia, Chile, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Italy, Norway, Paraguay, Spain, U.K. and Venezuela). The meeting also provided a platform to engage and profit from networking with leaders in the field of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. The Masterclasses and the scientific programme were excellent and encouraged discussion. We will continue to pursue communication between trainees all around the world. Our main goal in the immediate future is to gather more members as well as to start new scholarship programs, which would help trainees visit departments in different countries. We are working towards the 2nd IPRAS-TA meeting to be held in conjunction with the 11th IQUAM meeting in Paris, 2014. Issue 12 www.ipras.org IPRAS Journal 27
