Dear colleagues and friends,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the European Hernia Society (EHS) Annual Congress in the beautiful and vibrant city of Porto. This meeting is being prepared with great enthusiasm and dedication, aiming to bring together surgeons from around the world to share knowledge, strengthen collaborations, and celebrate innovation in hernia surgery.

Over the past years, the EHS has continued to grow and strengthen its position as a leading international reference in hernia research, education, and clinical practice. This progress reflects the extraordinary dedication, curiosity, and passion of our members, who share a common goal: to improve the quality of care for patients with abdominal wall and hernia conditions worldwide.

Hernia remains one of the most prevalent surgical conditions globally, and its management continues to evolve rapidly thanks to new technologies, materials, and techniques. The EHS plays a central role in guiding this evolution by fostering scientific exchange, promoting training and education, and supporting innovation and evidence-based practice.

We invite you to fully enjoy this next congress, not only the high-level scientific program, but also the opportunity to network, exchange experiences, and create lasting friendships. Porto offers a vibrant atmosphere and rich culture that perfectly complements the spirit of our meeting.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we are building a stronger, more connected global hernia community.

Warm regards,

Salvador Morales-Conde
President
of the European Hernia Society
