Faculty, fellows and researchers from the Divisions of Plastic Surgery and Neurosurgery traveled to Tokyo in September to give four oral presentations and three poster presentations at the 16th Biennial Congress of the International Society of Craniofacial Surgery (ISCFS).
Texas Children’s research at the conference centered on craniosynostosis, cleft lip and palate outcomes, and prenatal identification of the Pierre Robin Sequence. Dr. Edward Buchanan and Dr. Laura Monson from Plastic Surgery gave the research presentations on behalf of the craniofacial team. Dr. Helena Karlberg and Dr. Camille Colomb from Anesthesia attended the conference as well.
Dr. Larry Hollier, chief of the Division of Plastic Surgery and a member of the 2015 ISCFS Congress Program Committee, said, “We are extremely proud that so many of our abstracts were accepted at the conference.”
He added that attending conferences like ISCFS and sharing our research findings are important as we grow our craniofacial program at Texas Children’s.
