International surgical meetings with thousands of participants
speaking a dozen different languages tend to be frustrating for the
individual who comes with the hope of learning about progress in
his fields, but who additionally would like to be able to ex change
ideas on controversial topics and to meet competent people with
whom to discuss specific problems. In the "one-way" ses sions in
which long papers are presented, details or specific points may be
missed. Differing views often are not adequately discussed, because
the meeting and its participants are pressed for time. The 44
breakfast and luncheon sessions, covering different topics of
interest to the practicing surgeon, were mainly planned to overcome
these classical "congress handicaps" and also to do away with the
anonymous atmosphere of such a large congress. Slides and formal
papers were banished from these sessions. The outcome of these very
lively and pleasant discussions taking place around small
well-dressed tables was unexpected by most participants. A chairman
and several panel members shared their repast, caloric and
intellectual, with some 10-30 congress par ticipants. The result
was in each instance a lively, informative intimate discussion,
very different from the anonymous atmo sphere of a large meeting.
In the hope of preserving these ex changes, the chairmen were
requested immediately the session finished to "distill the essence"
of the 90-minute exchange into a summary captured on tape."
