Seventy-Five Years of the Department of Pediatric Surgery
Established in 1950, the Department is the oldest department of pediatric surgery in Poland. To commemorate this impressive anniversary, a two-day conference was held, titled “Pediatric Surgery: Past, Present, and Future”. It was an opportunity for both reminiscing about the past and meeting former colleagues, and to share knowledge and experience related to pediatric surgery, which has been developing dynamically as a field.
