Register Now for STS/EACTS Latin America Cardiovascular Surgery Conference

The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) is partnering with the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EACTS) on a new educational program in Latin America that is designed for all members of the cardiac surgical team.

The STS/EACTS Latin America Cardiovascular Surgery Conference will be held September 21-22 at the Hilton Cartagena in Cartagena, Colombia. The two day conference will begin with general sessions on managing the mitral valve before splitting into separate tracks on adult congenital, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and the tricuspid valve.

The second day starts off with dual tracks of “Stump the Professor,” followed by general sessions on the aortic valve and quality initiatives; afternoon tracks include coronary artery disease and the aorta and aortic arch. The program closes with another general session on the aortic root.

View the full educational program with speakers, and read an STS News article featuring interviews with Program Directors Juan P. Umana, MD, Vinod H. Thourani, MD, Jose L. Pomar, MD, PhD, and Joseph E. Bavaria, MD.
