摘要

In 2017, a statement was released by the executive boards of the German Society of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (DGHNO-KHC) and the German Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (DGMKG) declaring the equal necessity of both medical disciplines, particularly regarding emergency services. The current consensus paper provides an updated and expanded version of this statement. Owing to the structure of their continuing education programs, the practice of both specialties in conservative and surgical treatment areas, and their economic bases, Oto-Rhino-Laryngology and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery are independent disciplines. However, due to the anatomic involvement, the fields have various points of contact and interfaces as well as boundaries, which are summarized in this joint statement and consensus paper. These include jointly run center structures, working groups, training and continuing education initiatives, economic issues, health care policy interest groups, and research activities. To facilitate constructive discussions between the executive boards of the two societies, the “board consultations” begun in 2025 are to be continued on a regular basis, and mutual invitations to congresses are to be extended to promote scientific and professional dialogue.
