This Latin Heart Rounds collaboration between the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) will feature an international panel of cardiologists and cardiac surgeons from Latin America, Europe, and the United States speaking about the current management of syndromic aortic disease. The panel will discuss:
During this webinar, an expert panel will focus on different methods of cannulation including: open vs. percutaneous cannulation; perfusion strategies (including when bicaval cannulation is needed); and examination of different methods of myocardial protection including transthoracic aortic cross-clamping and endo-balloon. The session is relevant for cardiac surgeons and trainees at all experience levels, as well as members of robotic cardiac teams interested in understanding basic techniques relevant to robotic cardiac surgery and advanced methods used in more complex scenarios.
Plan to attend this installment of the STS/SCA Webinar Series, Across the Drapes: Multidisciplinary Management in Esophagectomy. Leaders in both surgery and anesthesiology will discuss preoperative and intraoperative management of esophagectomy and its complications, with the goal of optimizing intraoperative management between surgeons and anesthesiologists.

Facing a lung cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, and patients rely on their care team to provide information that is accessible and direct. The STS/CHEST Patient Education Guide on Navigating Lung Cancer provides expert information about a patient's treatment journey in a way that can help them feel more comfortable about diagnosis, symptoms, and the advances in diagnostic and treatment options that have come about in recent years.
Join Drs. Leonidas Tapias and Michael Krainock as they review the latest clinical data supporting the use of ctDNA for molecular residual disease (MRD) assessment in resectable NSCLC. Learn how MRD helps identify NSCLC patients who remain at high recurrence risk after surgery and detects recurrence before radiographic imaging. The webinar will conclude with a review of real-world case studies, practical considerations for implementing MRD testing in routine practice, and future directions for research.
Best Practices for Cardiothoracic Surgery is a two-day virtual event that provides coders, surgeons, and billing professionals with the latest updates to CPT and physician coding and reimbursement, which affect cardiothoracic surgical practices.
