Numerous advances in basic research, surgical techniques, practice, and patient care have revolutionized surgery over the last 60 years and made the field with its many subspecialties more diverse but also more complex.

"Wer jedes Jahr nach MALOJA kommt, wird lange auf dieser Erde bleiben", steht in Französisch auf der Stirnwand eines Hotels am Malojapass.
