Join us for the first installment of the STS/SCA webinar series, Across the Drapes: Multidisciplinary Management in Thoracic Aortic Surgery. In this webinar, the multidisciplinary panel will discuss the management of two cases from the perspective of both cardiac anesthesiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons. The discussion will entail preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative components of the cases and the interdisciplinary team that cares for these complex patients.

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a blood test that can be used to detect and monitor thoracic malignancies. It is being used to detect mutations, monitor for recurrence after surgery and other treatments, and can even be used in conjunction with screening to help identify malignancy. As the field continues to advance, it is crucial for thoracic surgeons, trainees, and healthcare providers to stay informed about the latest developments in ctDNA testing and its applications for thoracic patients.
Hear the pros and cons from surgeons who have transitioned from training to their first job at the same institution, and at a different institution. Panelists will also discuss what role your division chief plays during this important transition.
