An opportunity for cardiothoracic surgeons, trainees, and allied cardiovascular professionals across South Asia to learn from experienced international faculty, discuss challenging cases, and gain insights into contemporary surgical techniques and decision-making.
This webinar will explore how circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and minimal residual disease (MRD) can inform care across perioperative lung cancer care. Faculty will discuss practical approaches to ctDNA sampling before and after surgery, including its integration with imaging, and examine how MRD findings may guide conversations about treatment escalation, de-escalation, and clinical trial referral.
Gain comprehensive insight about the multidisciplinary team’s role in guiding patients with resectable gastroesophageal junction cancer through the full course of care, including surgery, neoadjuvant, and adjuvant treatment. Faculty will discuss how to establish clear patient expectations, review recent trial data and surgical outcomes (including perspectives on overall survival results from CheckMate 577 and Matterhorn), and operating after neoadjuvant immunotherapy and targeted therapies through evidence-based best practices.
A world-class, international event that will explore the latest developments and best practices in coronary artery disease, congenital heart disease, thoracic aortic disease, atrial fibrillation, and the surgical management of heart failure
Join the next installment of the STS/SCA webinar series, Across the Drapes: Intraoperative Disasters and Crises in Cardiac Surgery. Surgery and anesthesiology leaders will discuss strategies to improve collaborative intraoperative management. This second webinar in the series will focus on pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) rupture, cardiac arrest during induction, and TAVR rupture.
A collaborative series presented by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists
