As a Board Member of the Mediterranean Society of Coloproctology, we always remember Pavle as a wise and generous man devoted to colorectal surgery. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, colleagues, and patients as we remember and celebrate a life well-lived.

We follow and we are affected by the words written by SOJAR V. [1] closest friend of Prof. Košorok.

« … Pavle Košorok's journey in the medical field began at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, where he earned his medical degree in 1969. He went on to specialize in general surgery, earning his Masters degree in 1979 and achieving his PhD in 1992. Prof. Košorok's thirst for knowledge led him to London's St. Bartholomeus Hospital, Guy's Hospital, and St. Mark's Hospital, as well as Royal Infirmary in Leeds, under the guidance of Prof. Golligher. He expanded his horizons with experiences at the Cleveland Clinic and the Lahey Clinic in 1980, and at the Enterostomal Therapy School at the Cleveland Clinic in 1990.

Prof. Košorok's impact extended beyond the operating room. He served as a Consultant Surgeon at UMC Ljubljana's Department of Abdominal Surgery from 1976 to 1994, leaving an imprint of expertise and compassion on his patients. In 1994, he founded the Iatros Medical Centre, a hub of excellence in general surgery, proctology, enterostomal therapy, and incontinence care. As its Director and Clinical Lead, he created a nurturing environment centered around patients' well-being.

Mediterranean Society of Coloproctology joint meeting report

The Mediterranean Society of Coloproctology (MSCP) has already accomplished its XII biennial Congress as a 4thJoint Meeting with the Mediterranean Society of PelvicFloor Disorders (MSPFD)–Shaﬁk’s Foundation for Science and, for the ﬁrst time, associated with the International Society of University Colon & Rectal Surgeons (ISUCRS), heldin Cairo, Egypt on March 2–3, 2023 in Grand Nile TowerHotel.

It is important to underline that the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to the delay of any MSCP meetings and to the loss of members as a result of unfortunate health issues or just distancing due to the loss of social contact. With the aim to palliate the pandemic conﬁnement, frequent video and streaming platforms assisted our activity during this period, aiming to avoid the loss of knowledge in colorectal diseases between members, executive members and interested participants.

Nevertheless, virtual activities never bring the feeling of meeting people personally for intellectual exchanges.

WHAT DOES THE LITERATURE REPORT?

Two outstanding surgeons, one from Great Britain, the late Professor John Goligher and one from USA, Dr Steven Wexner, wrote two classical books on colorectal surgery.

The beginning of the chapters on FISTULA-IN-ANO had the same concept in common.

According to Goligher it is more difficult to operate a complex (i.e. recurrent, high, with multiple tracks) anal fistula than a rectal cancer. According to Wexner, fistula-in-ano represents the most challenging disease for a colorectal surgeon.

Greetings from Manos Pramateftakis, new President of M.S.C.P.

Pramateftakis The role of the Mediterranean Society of Coloproctology over the last 20 years of its existence has been to create a network of specialists across the Mediterranean basin in order to share knowledge and promote excellence in all aspects of lower gastrointestinal surgery. The society has been growing with steady rhythm and has managed to attract more and more countries into its ever growing surgical “family”.

The society’s 11th biennial meeting found place in Thessaloniki, Greece and was hosted by the Interbalkan Medical Centre, a state-of-the-art hospital covering all aspects of elective and emergency medicine across Northern Greece and the Balkans.
