Every two years, surgeons from all over the world converge on a hotel in Manhattan for two full days focused on aortic disease in the chest.
Most of the sessions consist of video presentations of aortic surgery techniques, and there are many poster and video displays as well.
This symposium began many years ago at Mount Sinai in New York, and today is known around the world for the importance of its contribution in sharing leading edge perspectives in the treatment of aortic disease.
The 2012 program includes sessions on Bicuspid Aortic Valves, along with other syndromes and topics of interest regardless of the underlying causes of aortic disease in the chest.
