Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Philippine society of Otolaryngology Head and neck surgery (PsO-Hns) we are honored to play host to the international Federation of Head and neck Oncologic societies (iFHnOs) World tour 2010, a global continuing medical education program featuring the most respected leaders in the field of head and neck surgery and oncology. the iFHnOs World tour 2010 will be held in conjunction with the 54th PsO-Hns Annual Convention on October 17-20, 2010 at the Crowne Plaza Galleria Manila, Philippines. We cordially invite you to an active exchange of ideas among colleagues in the Asian region during the twin meetings. With the iFHnOs World tour 2010 theme of Current Concepts in Head and neck surgery and Oncology, we hope to provide an interactive venue to explore frontiers in head and neck cancer diagnosis and treatment through introductory lectures, discussions with regional and local experts on case presentations, and demonstrations on operative techniques through video presentations. On the other hand, the theme of the 54th PsO-Hns Annual Convention is Fallacies and Controversies, updates and Debates. Common misconceptions and myths will be discussed. Pressing issues, both academic and clinical, will be highlighted in debates. We look forward to satisfying the attendees quest for answers which usually is not readily available in the medical literature. Beyond the scientific sessions, we have lined up opportunities for you to explore and discover 7,107 island experiences: from the golden sunset of Manila Bay to the virgin rain forests and underground rivers of Palawan; from golfing greens to coral reef dive sites; from innumerable pristine white sand beaches to the wonder that is the Banaue rice terraces. But however each one experiences the Philippines, what shines through is the genuine warmth and gracious hospitality that comes naturally from every Filipino. We are leaving no stone unturned in ensuring a rewarding and memorable experience. We look forward to seeing you all in the Philippines come October 17-20, 2010! Mabuhay!
