Dear Colleague,
It is a great pleasure to invite you to join us in the charming island of Favignana,

The meeting is organized by the “School of Specialization in Plastic and
Reconstructive Surgery, University of Palermo”, directed by Prof. Francesco
Moschella, and promises to be a first-class educational event that focuses on the
latest advances in Plastic Surgery. With its diverse mix of didactic presentations,
debates, and cutting-edge abstract presentations, all participants will have the
opportunity to update their knowledge in the field, confirm their current practices
and receive valuable take-home information on exciting new management
approaches and surgical techniques.
The event is open for both Residents and Specialists from all the European
University and more but we remind you that only Residents can be speakers.
