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.  

A collaborative series presented by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) and the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA)

The STS South Asian Webinar: Surgical Management of Infectious Lung Diseases features expert talks on open and minimally invasive surgical approaches to infectious lung diseases, including tuberculosis sequelae, by leading thoracic surgeons from South Asia, Europe, and the United States.

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.
