95th annual meeting of the German Society of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Head and Neck Surgery May 8 - 11, 2024 - Essen, Germany

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the 95th Annual Meeting of the German Society of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery. From May 8-11, 2024, this traditional and prestigious event will take place at Messe Essen and promises to be an outstanding event for all ENT physicians, nurses and those interested in our field.

Under the motto "Crossing Borders", we invite you to experience and create international, interdisciplinary and interactive networking. The international focus is reflected in Joint Meetings with the American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery and the Confederation of European Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery.

Together with neighboring specialties, we develop innovative solutions and treatment concepts for our patients on a daily basis. The congress will cover a wide range of topics, including the latest developments in head and neck oncology, thyroid, skull base surgery, orbita, otology including endoscopic ear surgery and cochlear implant care.

The opening ceremony will take place at the Philharmonie Essen with a festive ceremony on May 8, 2024, kicking off three days of knowledge transfer, networking and inspiration. Here you will have the opportunity to learn from renowned experts from Germany and abroad as well as to share your own experiences and insights with others. A varied and broad continuing education program as part of the annual meeting of the German Academy of Otolaryngology as well as extra offerings for employees from the nursing and health care professions and practice teams round out the program.

Participate actively in the program design and contribute your current research results as a lecture or poster. It is also important to us to consistently include contributions from young colleagues on all days of the congress, including exciting case reports in the popular session "Learning from the Case".

I would particularly like to highlight the social evening on May 10, 2024 at the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex, which promises to be an extraordinary experience with an excellent dinner, a humorous cabaret artist, and an impressive laser show. 

We would be delighted if you could already make a note of the date and take advantage of this unique opportunity to meet colleagues from Germany and all over the world here in the heart of the Ruhr region.

Sincerely yours
Prof. Dr. med. Stephan Lang 
President DGHNO-KHC
