On behalf of the Egyptian Society for Surgery of the Hand and Microsurgery
ESSHM, it gives me great pleasure and pride, to invite you all, surgeons and hand
therapists, to the IVth ESSHM Congress that will take place in Luxor, February 1-3,
2011.
Luxor is located in Upper Egypt, and is the site of the ancient city of Thebes. Luxor,
often called the world’s greatest open air museum, has a number of historic areas
that are very popular tourist destinations including the Temple of Luxor, the Temple of
Karnak, as well as the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens.
The Organizing Committee intends to prepare and deliver an unforgettable scientific
event, due to the presence of many invited world known specialists who will offer
pearls of their wisdom and creativity to the young and enthusiastic colleagues. The
program is going to combine symposia, free paper sessions and workshops, which
will cover the specific interests of all participants. A special emphasis will be dedi-
cated to microsurgery of peripheral nerves and brachial plexus as the main theme of
this congress.
We are looking forwards to seeing you in Luxor, to share this wonderful scientific and
social event. I am certain that the Congress will be rich and fruitful in each of its
aspects, both scientific as convivial and I am also certain that Luxor will happily
surprise those who have not yet had the chance to visit this city which is so rich in
spirit and history in a country with such hospitality and warmth.
I wish you all a positive work experience and a pleasant stay.

Sincerely
Tarek El-Gammal, M.D.
