I cannot believe that it is all finished now!
I would like to take this occasion to give the most sincere expression of my deep gratitude to all of you. If we have been able to realize this unique event it was thanks to the cooperation of everybody: the 5 International Societies, the Sponsors, the Organizing Secretariat and mainly thanks to all of you that honored this event with active participation and scientific involvement.
Basically, the wonderful “sense of human value” that came out from the 5 days is because of your presence. The spirit of this congress was first of all this: to join all the different cultures, habits and needs, scientific ideas and daily reality in one unique big hug.
I do hope that this “intimate relationship” that we started during the 1st World Conference on Abdominal Wall Hernia Surgery will be kept for all our future time.
Thank you once more. I hope to meet you soon.

Prof. Giampiero Campanelli
