The Oncology Section of the Polish Society of Otorhinolaryngologists of Head and Neck Surgeons is one of the oldest sections of the PSOHNS. It was established by a resolution of the General Meeting of the PSOHNS in Poznań on September 22, 1980 upon request of prof. Stanisław Iwankiewicz, who became its Chairman. On December 12, 1981, the 1^st Conference of the Section was held in Wrocław. The overarching theme of the conference was laryngeal cancer. During its 40 years of existence, the Oncology Section organized 3 conferences and 17 symposia, bringing pride to the entire Society, and promoted the latest scientific trends in the approach to head and neck cancer. With the development of basic sciences, genetic and molecular tests as well as new diagnostic and therapeutic methods, the topics of meetings gradually expanded to include new sections and issues in ENT oncology.
