Dear Colleagues,
This two day Symposium focuses on latest techniques in cardiac surgery
and will be presented by some of the top clinicians and scientists in their
respective fields. The program will include live surgery transmissions (in
high quality HDTV format), video presentations, and scientific lectures
on the most topical subjects in cardiac surgery. Active interaction with
the audience will be encouraged throughout all stages of the program.
Although the meeting will have a primary focus on surgery, it will also be
a major goal to view cardiovascular problems from the point of view of
the cardiologist, as well as the cardiac surgeon. Such an approach should
allow for an optimal educational experience of all attendees. Together
through extensive discussion and occasional controversy, we will strive to
obtain consensus on how to jointly treat specific problems in cardiovascular
medicine for the sake of our patients.
The partnership and long lasting friendship of the two organizing centers
in Leipzig and Dallas, together with an international distinguished faculty,
will ensure a meeting of the highest quality. In addition, live didactic case
presentations will continue to be a major focus of the meeting, as has
been the case for many previous meetings broadcast from our center.
This is the second of a series of partnership meetings organized by the
teams of cardiologists and cardiac surgeons in Dallas and Leipzig that will
further broaden the information that was obtained at the successful Dallas
– Leipzig Heart Valve Symposium that was held in April of this year.
We are very much looking forward to welcoming you in Leipzig in December.
Yours sincerely,
Friedrich W. Mohr • Michael Mack
