Belgian surgeon Charles Willems (1859-1930) played a prominent role in the founding of the Société Internationale de Chirurgie (International Society of Surgery), of which he became the first president in 1902. He kept the office until 1929, when illness obliged him to discontinue. He had an important military career in the Balkan War but especially during World War I. He later became Professor of Surgery at the University of Liège. He produced numerous scientific articles on various surgical subjects and even started a journal that was the forerunner of the World Journal of Surgery. The International Society of Surgery owes a lot to its first president.

With the aim of promoting progress in surgery through the friendly exchange of views and experience, the International Society of Surgery was founded in Brussels in 1902, thereby helping to overcome the narrow boundaries of that time's nationalism. At its first congress, the International Society of Surgery (ISS), otherwise known by its French name, Société Internationale de Chirurgie (SIC), already numbered 638 members, among them the most important surgeons from all over the world. Theodor Kocher (1841-1917) was the president of the first congress, held in Brussels in 1905, and was also responsible for the choice of topics. His presidential address clearly reflected the high aims the Society set for itself. Kocher's personal and professional authority, his surgical skill, which he liked so much to communicate to his colleagues, and his international thinking shaped the young Society. He remained on the international committee of the ISS until his death. Renowned surgeons from all over the globe traveled to Bern to see Kocher at work, among whom were many distinguished leaders of U.S. surgery. Thus Kocher's contribution had a great impact on the developing surgery, in particular in the United States. A short curriculum outlines the personality of this outstanding surgeon.
