The merger of two societies, the AmericanSociety for Head and Neck Surgery and the Society of Head and Neck Surgeons,formed the American Head and Neck Society.The contributions made by the two societies forming the AHNS are significantin the history of surgery in the United States. Dr. Hayes Martin conceived theSociety of Head and Neck Surgeons in 1954, a surgeon considered by many to bethe “father of modern head and neck tumor surgery.” The purpose of the societywas to exchange and advance the scientific knowledge relevant to the surgery ofhead and neck tumors (exclusive of brain surgery) with an emphasis on cancerof the head and neck. Two years later, The American Society for Head and NeckSurgery was organized with the goal to “facilitate and advance knowledge relevantto surgical treatment of diseases of the head and neck, including reconstructionand rehabilitation; promote advancement of the highest professional and ethicalstandards as they pertain to the practice of major head and neck surgery; and tohonor those who have made major contributions in the field of head and necksurgery, or have aided in its advancement”.The new Society remains dedicated to the common goals of its parentalorganizations.12 AHNS 2013 Annual Meeting
