RESUMO
En varios países se celebra el día del otorrinolaringólogo y tiene una fecha distinta en cada uno de ellos por diferentes motivos. Hemos formado parte importante de la historia y nuestro aporte en las diferentes áreas de la especialidad es y deberá ser siempre reconocido por la sociedad entera; sin embargo, en Colombia no teníamos una fecha definida para celebrarlo, por lo que recibimos palabras de felicitación en diferentes días del año. Como Asociación Colombiana de Otorrinolaringología (ACORL), debemos procurar visibilizar nuestro trabajo como especialistas y darle el lugar que merece en la sociedad civil y científica; es por esto por lo que, atendiendo y gestionando la inquietud de una querida asociada, les comparto que esta Junta Directiva ha oficializado el 26 de septiembre como el día del otorrinolaringólogo en nuestro país. Qué mejor oportunidad que esta para hacerles un homenaje a quienes tuvieron la determinación de fundar ACORL el 26 de septiembre de 1961 en Bogotá.
In several countries the Otolaryngologist day is celebrated and it has a different date in each one for different reasons. We have made an important part in history and our contribution in the different areas of the specialty is and should always be recognized by the entire society. However, in Colombia we did not have a defined date to celebrate it. As Association (ACORL), we must try to make our work visible as specialists and give it the place it deserves in civil and scientific society. This is why I share with you that this Board of Directors has made September 26 official as the Otolaryngologist day in our country. What better opportunity than this, to pay tribute to those who had the determination to establish the Colombian Association of Otolaryngology on September 26, 1961 in Bogota
