The International Society of Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation held its 13th congress "Defining Success" in October 2017 in Salzburg, Austria. A total of 122 delegates from 22 countries representing 5 continents attended the conference. The theme strived to provide pathways to accomplish best possible outcomes in this unique and multifaceted field of transplantation. "Ignite talks," a new feature introduced for the first time at the Salzburg meeting served as key elements for productive discussions on both congress days. The "ignitors" had been selected as experts from Europe, the Americas and Asia in vascularized composite allotransplantation and neighboring disciplines and provided a global perspective of their topic. Posttransplant treatment regimens, including the most burdensome side effects of immunosuppressants in addition to novel and future therapeutic options were discussed in depth. An additional ethics symposium summarized and advanced topics that had been discussed during the first international workshop on bioethical challenges in reconstructive transplantation held earlier in 2017.
2017 年 10 月，国际血管化复合组织同种异体移植协会在奥地利萨尔茨堡举行了第 13 届大会，主题为“定义成功”。共有来自 5 大洲 22 个国家的 122 名代表参加了会议。该主题旨在为这一独特而多方面的移植领域提供实现最佳结果的途径。“点燃会谈”是萨尔茨堡会议首次推出的一个新特色，作为大会两天内富有成效讨论的关键要素。“点火者”是从血管化复合组织同种异体移植和相邻学科领域的欧洲、美洲和亚洲挑选出来的专家，他们从全球角度介绍了他们的主题。除了新的和未来的治疗选择之外，还深入讨论了移植后的治疗方案，包括免疫抑制剂最繁重的副作用。此外，还举行了一次额外的伦理研讨会，总结和推进了 2017 年初举行的第一次重建移植生物伦理挑战国际研讨会期间讨论的议题。
