This unique event will see the participation of the three-year joint Congress of the European Hernia Society and the American Hernia Society and the Annual Congresses of the Asia-Pacific Hernia Society, the Australasian Hernia Society and the Afro Middle East Hernia Society. The peculiarity and specificity of this event is not only the fact that all the major experts as well as all the different experiences of the five continents will be gathered under the same assizes, but also the fact that throughout the year 2015 there isn’t going to be any other international congress of these Societies.
