After remaining in the niche of a discipline that received little attention for many decades, it has now emerged from this shadow and emancipated itself. Simple hernia surgery has become \u201cabdominal wall reconstruction\u201d and thus the decisive term that has initiated the rise of this exciting discipline.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to rapid technological developments such as new minimally invasive techniques or the introduction of robotics, training and further education have also evolved. Anatomical workshops, interactive congresses and not least the official specialist title of the UEMS (F.E.B.S. Abdominal Wall Surgery) have contributed to a new standing of hernia surgery worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>The SAHC is an official interest group of the SGC and has set itself the political goal of further developing hernia surgery in all its professional and health policy facets in Switzerland. At the same time, the connection of the SAHC to the umbrella organizations SGC (national level) and EHS (international level) is to be further optimized. With the \u201cSwiss Hernia Days\u201d, the SAHC has a prestigious annual congress that is gaining increasing recognition and popularity both nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>As President-elect for the 2024 &#8211; 2026 term of office, I am extremely pleased to represent and promote the interests and concerns of our members externally.<\/p>\n<p>Yours sincerely<\/p>\n<h6><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3200\" src=\"https:\/\/sahc.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/signatur_hh.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"120\" height=\"110\" \/>PD Dr. Henry Hoffmann,<br \/>\nPresident of the Swiss Association for Hernia Surgery, SAHC<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"thumb-column\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3220 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sahc.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/hoffmann_sahc-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"650\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":701,"menu_order":3,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-715","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
