Welcome

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

As Chairman of the XII PAAPS congress, and on behalf of the PAAPS Board, it is my great pleasure to invite you to join us in Doha, Qatar on 17-19 February 2012 for the 12th Pan Arab Paediatric Surgery Association congress and the 1st Qatar International Paediatric Surgery congress.

We are working with determination and enthusiasm to help make this event an enormous success and a truly memorable occasion. We are preparing a program which will cover the focal topics of Paediatric Surgery and Paediatric Urology. The congress will provide a platform for the international exchange of ideas between those with clinical and scientific expertise.

There is no better time to visit this part of the world than February. I hope to see you in Qatar the booming medical hub of the Middle East.
