August 25-30, 2007 MEGARON ATHENS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE CENTRE 

Under the auspices of H.E. the President of the Hellenic Republic, Mr. Karolos Papoulias 

WORD OF WELCOME 

WELCOME!!! 

It is my unique honor and pleasure to welcome my pediatric colleagues and all our friends from 

all over the world to this 25th International Congress which promises to be a unique one. The 

IPA today, comprises 144 national pediatric associations, 10 regional and 11 specialist pediatric 

societies representing all areas of the world. Since it was founded in 1910, the IPA has worked 

persistently for the promotion of pediatrics and global child health as well as foster stronger 

ties amongst pediatricians of the world. On this occasion therefore, we shall have the opportunity 

of meeting with some of the distinguished men and women who devoted their efforts 

and their time to this laudable cause. Also attending the congress are representatives of the 

younger generation who are poised to continue with the legacy of concern, compassion and 

commitment that the current generation is passing on to them. 

The choice of Athens for this congress affords us the rare opportunity to appreciate first hand, 

unique Greek architecture, evolutionary cultures and hospitality of the Greek people but more 

importantly it provides us with a forum to interact constructively towards the promotion and 

support of global child health. The IPA has been involved in a number of key program areas, 

placing premium on advocacy as the tool for achieving the set objectives. It is my hope that this 

congress will help to highlight the areas requiring urgent global attention. 

I also believe that this is a good time to reflect on how well we have fared with our contributions 

towards the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals particularly as they relate 

to children in the developing world (MDG4). 

I would like to end this brief message by thanking the officers and members of the IPA Executive 

and Standing Committees as well as the President of the ICP2007 and his very impressive 

organizing team. We have worked well together these past three years and I am sure that at the 

end of this congress, our “good-byes” will be said with mixed emotions. 

I wish you a fruitful and enjoyable stay. I know that no matter where we are in the future, we 

shall continue to strive to ensure that all children will become healthy and will live in a healthy 

world. 

Friendly regards, 

Adenike Grange 

President, IPA, 2004-2007

WORD OF WELCOME 

Dear Colleagues, 




It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the 25th International Congress of Pediatrics in Athens. 

Greece, the birthplace of Hippocrates, is a modern country with state-of-the-art infrastructure 

and a vast capacity to host big events as proven by the recent successful organisation of the 

2004 Olympic Games. 

Our ambition has been to organise an event to outperform its precedents. We not only aimed at 

attracting the best pediatricians of the world to join us and make us richer with their knowledge, 

but also we have set an ambitious goal to best serve the global partnership for an expanded 

vision of development for our society. We are all scientists - MDs - dedicated to improving the 

health of our children. But our scope of aims does not end there; our congress also addresses 

major issues, which affect the well-being of children around the world: environment, nutrition, 

education, natural disasters, and the impact of mass media, all are some of the topics that will 

be discussed. The Greek Minister of Health and Social Solidarity has invited his counterparts 

from all over the world to participate in a Ministerial Summit and sign a Ministerial Declaration 

aiming at the protection of our children. The Social Initiative Committee worked on background 

information about AIDS orphans and Violence on Children and will convene on August 27th to 

finalize the action plan to be submitted to the Ministerial Summit. 

The first day of the Congress (August 25 th , 2007) is dedicated to pediatric subspecialties. and 

pediatric associations including State of the Art Sessions. We hope that this initiative will be 

established in all future IPA congresses. 

In addition, on the occasion of the 2007 ICP Congress, the 3rd International Congress on 

Pediatric Nursing takes place on August 24 th and 25 th , 2007, at The Megaron Athens International 

Conference Centre. This is an important scientific meeting and we are pleased to offer our full 

support to our fellow nurses. 

The scientific contribution of the international pediatric community has been impressive and I 

encourage you to contribute similarly in the constructive discussion during scientific sessions. 

Hospitality (philoxenia) has always been a greek core value. We are delighted to welcome you in 

Athens, and promise you that the 25 th International Congress of Pediatrics will be a memorable 

experience. 

Cordially, 

Professor Andreas Constantopoulos 

President of the 25 th International Congress of Pediatrics

Idiopathic infantile arterial calcification is a very rare disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by extensive arterial wall calcification. 

We describe a premature male baby who was delivered at 32 weeks gestation with an antenatal diagnosis of hydrops fetalis. Aortic 

calcification was present at birth. Subsequent investigations showed multiple vascular calcifications involving cardiac, cerebral, and 

renal vessels. The baby was discharged in good general condition at the age of 37 days.

ABOUT ATHENS 

Athens has a lot to give to its visitors. There are many things to see at the historical 

centre but also a few kilometres away. 

You can start from the commercial heart of the city, Omonoia Square, which combines 

modern and neoclassical architecture and walk up Panepistimiou (University) 

street passing by the National Library, the University of Athens, the National 

Academy, the Catholic Cathedral and many other impressive buildings of the 

modern greek era. 

By then, you should have reached Syntagma (Constitution) Square, one of the 

busiest places of Athens, where the Parliament is located. You will know you are 

in the right place when you see the Evzones –the presidential guard- in front of 

the monument for the Unknown Soldier. 

On your right is Amalias avenue where you will find the gate of the National Garden. 

Walk among typical and rare plants and trees until the Zappeion (Conference 

and Exhibition Hall), appears before you. A few meters away stands the Panathinaikon 

Stadium, the cradle of the modern Olympic Games (1896). 

On your way to the Acropolis, stop to visit the Corinthian pillars, remains of Zeus’ 

temple and the Arch of the Emperor Hadrian, where the pedestrian street, Dionisiou 

Aeropagitou, begins to lead you to the Odeon of Herodus Atticus at the foot 

of the Acropolis sacred rock. Walking up the hill, you will enter the site through 

Propylea and visit the Parthenon, the most important and characteristic monument 

of the ancient Greek civilization which still remains its international symbol, 

the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erectheion and the Museum of the Acropolis. 

With these pictures in mind, walk downhill to Plaka, the oldest neighbourhood 

of Athens, and taste the typical greek cuisine in one of the traditional tavernas or 

have a frappe (iced coffee) in one of the numerous cafes. 

Other highlights you should not miss: the Archaeological Museum, the Museum 

of Cycladic Art, the Benaki Museum, the National Gallery, the Byzantine Museum, 

the Frissiras Museum of Contemporary Greek and European Painting, Lycabetus 

Hill, Monastiraki, Thiseion, the Olympic Athletic Centre of Athens (OAKA), and the 

Faliro-Glyfada coastline by tramway. For an Athenian night out, choose between 

Psiri (city centre) bars and taverns, and seaside open-air bars and beach clubs.
