President-Elect's Welcome

The Annual Meeting of the American Rhinologic Society will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Board of Directors Meeting and dinner will be held on Friday, September 24, 1999 at the Sheraton New Orleans in Room Rhythm 1. The Scientific Session will be held on Saturday, September 25, 1999 at the Sheraton New Orleans in rooms Rhythm 1, 2, and 3. Both of these meetings will precede the American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery Foundation 1999 Annual Meeting and Oto Expo at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center.

The ARS Annual Meeting will include the election and installation of new officers as well as action on proposed By-Law changes. If you have business you wish to be placed on the agenda, please contact President William Panje's office.

The ARS Scientific Session will include panel discussions and free papers. A broad range of rhinologic topics will be presented and discussed. I am particularly looking forward to a panel which will examine the emerging and controversial role of endoscopic surgery in the treatment of nasal, sinus and skull base tumors.

A new feature this year will be a commercially-sponsored session either immediately following the regular session or in a separate evening session. Details are still in the formative stage; however, this session will include a panel discussion of yet another controversial rhinologic subject by experts within and outside our field.

Thanks to the interest and support of the membership and particularly of your Program Committee. This session promises to be one of our most informative and exciting. See you there!
