The Society of Surgical Oncology (SSO), originally a multidisciplinary alumni organization for Memorial Hospital faculty and trainees (itself an important part of surgical oncology history), evolved into a national and then a global society primarily for surgeons treating cancer. We have identified 11 historical highlights, although many more could have been included (Table 1). Photos of SSO presidents during this era are shown in Fig. 1. During this period (1965–1990), the SSO (founded as the James Ewing Society) emerged from a smaller Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) alumni organization into a major national professional organization representing the broader interests of surgical oncologists wherever they trained. This also was an important period for defining the additional training necessary for surgical oncology to be characterized as a specialty in which oncologists would perform complex cancer operations. Indeed, the presidential leadership made great strides in defining the roles and responsibilities of a surgical oncologist. The curriculum of surgical oncology fellowship training was created, and the Society began the formal process of approving training programs throughout the United States (Table 2).
