SUMMARY:JSVS 54th Annual Meeting in Osaka\, Japan
DESCRIPTION:The Japanese Society for Vascular Surgery’s mission is to explore the best procedure for each patient. This annual meeting will be held to discuss the way to achieve the best at the frontline. \nThe topics of the JSVS meeting include the aorta from the aortic root\, the peripheral artery\, the vein\, and the lymphatic vessels. Both “open” surgery and endovascular intervention are discussed along with medical therapy. \nThis meeting also aims to promote internationalisation. Though many Japanese vascular surgeons joined the congress in the United States\, European countries\, and Asian countries\, we welcome only a few international guests to the Japanese congress because the presentation in Japanese is hard to understand. To elucidate this issue\, the AI translator (POCKETALK) will be utilised in more than half of all oral presentations for translation from Japanese to English and English to English captions.

This ESVS Academy workshop provides an intensive\, case-based exploration of modern aortic imaging strategies across the entire patient pathway. Using a real-world type B dissection case as the central learning framework\, participants will explore how imaging guides clinical decision-making from initial diagnosis through intervention and long-term surveillance. The course will focus on practical optimisation of imaging techniques\, including dynamic CTA and MRA\, fusion imaging\, IVUS\, CO₂ angiography\, cone-beam CT and contrast-enhanced duplex ultrasound. Designed as a highly interactive learning experience\, the workshop combines focused expert lectures with hands-on practical sessions and a simulation-based operating room scenario. Participants will work in small groups to analyse imaging datasets\, plan treatment strategies and perform simulated procedures\, while learning how to optimise intra-operative imaging and manage technical challenges. The second day features a structured simulation exercise in which participants plan and perform treatment of a type B dissection in a realistic OR environment\, integrating advanced imaging tools and team-based decision making. \nFull Programme \n  \nAccreditation: CME accreditation is not being sought for this course. Medtech accreditation is being sought. \n  \nParticipant qualifications: The workshop is intended for vascular surgeons and trainees interested in improving their understanding and practical use of advanced imaging techniques in aortic interventions. The course is of an intermediate / advanced level. \n  \nRegistration fee & cancellation policy: The registration fee is € 520 for ESVS members and € 650 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Beaumont Diabetic Foot Symposium 2026
DESCRIPTION:Diabetic foot disease is an increasingly prevalent and complex challenge across Europe and internationally\, with significant implications for vascular surgery practice. Patients with diabetes are at markedly increased risk of peripheral arterial disease\, ulceration\, and major limb amputation. Effective management requires timely vascular assessment and revascularisation\, integrated within a coordinated multidisciplinary framework. \nIn response to these challenges\, we established a multidisciplinary symposium aimed at bringing together key stakeholders in diabetic foot care\, including vascular surgeons\, interventional radiologists\, diabetologists\, infectious disease specialists\, podiatrists\, and specialist nurses.
