2 Questa è la quinta edizione consecutiva del Congresso Rome Spine. Nel corso degli anni, l interesse suscitato nei cultori della materia da questo Convegno è stato viepiù crescente, anche se è divenuto ogni anno più difficile costruire un Congresso che affronti tematiche sempre nuove ed attraenti. Dopo la prima edizione di Rome Spine, centrata essenzialmente sulle tecniche chirurgiche, particolarmente quelle mini-invasive, abbiamo scelto ogni anno temi di varia natura, sebbene le metodiche mini-invasive siano sempre state, in qualche misura, privilegiate. Ciò per l interesse che esse riscuotono in un tempo in cui la chirurgia si orienta in misura sempre maggiore verso tecniche rivolte al risparmio delle strutture anatomiche. Anche in questo Congresso, quindi, è stato dato spazio alla mini-invasività, ma in misura minore che nel passato. Abbiamo voluto dare più spazio alla scienza di base, con letture di esperti, alcuni dei quali di grande rilevanza internazionale. Nel contempo, abbiamo inteso affrontare, con largo respiro, tematiche importanti, quale Il Colpo di Frusta Cervicale e la Failed Back Surgery Syndrome. Il primo per la frequenza con cui si incontra nella pratica quotidiana. La seconda, per la necessità sentita da tutti, medici e pazienti, sia di ridurne l incidenza con indicazioni e tecniche chirurgiche appropriate al primo intervento, sia di rimediare agli insuccessi con una chiara visione degli obiettivi e un adeguata conoscenza delle metodiche terapeutiche da attuare. Nel programma abbiamo incluso Corsi Istruzionali, tenuti da colleghi alcuni dei quali ben noti a livello internazionale, allo scopo di approfondire le tematiche inerenti specifiche patologie, soprattutto sotto il profilo terapeutico. Inoltre, sono state inserite varie Consensus Conferences su argomenti controversi. Riteniamo che queste abbiano un importanza rilevante sia perché consentono di ascoltare le opinioni di diversi esperti, sia per arrivare possibilmente a conclusioni condivise da tutti o dalla maggioranza di essi e che possano rappresentare in qualche modo delle linee guida nel trattamento. Infine, una puntualizzazione sullo stato dell arte e uno sguardo al futuro è l obiettivo di presentazioni su nuove tecnologie in campo chirurgico e sui progressi incessanti dell ingegneria tessutale. Con la speranza che il programma allestito riscuota un largo interesse, vi aspettiamo a Roma all inizio di dicembre Franco Postacchini Pier Paolo Maria Menchetti SCIENTIFIC committee F.
