Colleagues from 66 countries submitted over 1,000 abstracts, a 60% increase on the previous year

Showcasing the latest science, innovation and research

Almost 5,000 participants from 99 countries came together in October to attend the 36th EACTS Annual Meeting in Milan. Widely recognised as the leading event for the cardiothoracic community, the Annual Meeting did not disappoint.

The four-day meeting provided many opportunities for participants to engage in rigorous debate and analysis alongside global experts in their field. The high-quality scientific programme included 150 focus and abstract sessions showcasing the latest research, innovations and technologies in cardiothoracic surgery.

The Annual Meeting’s reputation for cutting edge science was reinforced in 2022. Colleagues from 66 countries submitted over 1,000 abstracts, a 60% increase on the previous year. In addition, due to the high number of outstanding late breaking clinical trial abstract submissions, the 36th EACTS Annual Meeting featured two Late Breaking Clinical Trials sessions reporting the results and data from studies designed to make further improvements in outcomes for patients.

Our innovative Techno-College programme highlighting technological breakthroughs in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery proved extremely popular. Over 850 participants attended the full day programme to learn the appropriate use of new cardiovascular and cardiothoracic techniques through stimulating presentations, live surgeries and live in a box cases.
