PREFACE
The proceedings of the International Society of
Craniofacial Surgeons held in Monterey, California September 21-24, 2003
represent the “state-of-the-art” in clinical care and research in
craniofacial surgery presented at the 10th Biennial meeting. The Society was
established 20 years ago honoring its founding father, Paul Tessier. The
purpose of this society was to foster excellence and provide leadership in
this new surgical specialty. This meeting was held for the second time in
the U.S. commemorating the 20th anniversary of the society. A Pre-Meeting
Symposium was presented by nine of the founding members of this society on
long-term outcomes. Both meetings are available on CD-rom providing the live
presentations and scientific data. Included with this volume is an
additional CD-rom of the proceedings compliments of Synthes Maxillofacial.
Quantitative data providing outcome measurements is required today to
document results in craniofacial surgery. This reconstructive surgery has
provided improved quality of life for hundreds of thousands of patients with
deformities due to congenital, acquired, traumatic, and tumors of the head
and neck region. In the tradition of our meeting, as established by Daniel
Marchac, short presentations were followed by lively discussion. I have
included these discussions to provide a much better understanding of the
current thinking regarding these papers.
This meeting had nearly 300 registered participants from 23 countries. The
scientific program was selected from 218 abstracts divided into categories
of research, distraction, craniosynostosis, alloplastic materials, aesthetic
surgery of the craniofacial skeleton, blood replacement, tumors, trauma,
facial clefts, encephaloceles, and other related congenital anomalies. The
papers in these proceedings are in the order that they were presented and
with their corresponding discussions. The majority of the remaining papers
which were accepted or presented as posters at this meeting are also
included.
In my opening presidential address, I stated that it is time the
International Society take a more active role to assume the delivery of
excellence of care globally for craniofacial patients. The International
Society of Craniofacial Surgeons should not only be for surgeons, but become
better advocates for our patients. Under served areas of the world need
access to craniofacial expertise which should be delivered in dedicated
centers of excellence.
During this last two-year period, a strategic plan was drafted, accepted,
and presented at the business meeting. It was anticipated that efforts would
be taken in the future to move towards the goals set out in this strategic
plan. The technical and research advances in craniofacial surgery presented
in this volume will improve patient care and quality of outcomes. It is left
to the future leaders of this society to take a pro-active position for our
patients, to inform appropriate governments, media, and the public in
general about the potential contributions of craniofacial surgery to the
welfare of our society and improved quality of life for many patients.
