This premier annual event brings together thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, oncologists, anesthesiologists, and healthcare professionals. This year, our scientific program focuses on innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the sharing of clinical expertise to meet the rapidly evolving technological challenges of our specialty.
The scientific committee has curated a comprehensive program featuring dedicated thematic sessions, keynote lectures, and international joint sessions:
Dive into cutting-edge technical advances with a designated robotic surgery session and a hands-on introductory workshop.
An interdisciplinary approach in partnership with the Tunisian Association of Neurology, covering new guidelines for myasthenia gravis management, the role of lymph node dissection, and minimally invasive approaches.
A complete overview spanning diagnostic, therapeutic, and palliative techniques led by prominent international experts.
In-depth discussions on preventing prolonged post-operative air leaks, pre-operative rehabilitation strategies, and chronic post-operative pain management.
Specialized free communication sessions addressing these critical and frequently encountered regional pathologies.
Because optimal patient care relies on a cohesive team, the congress offers specialized technical and practical training spaces:
Hands-on simulator training and system introduction for surgeons.
Workplace health, physical strain reduction, and occupational ergonomics in high-stress clinical environments.
Targeted sessions on thoracic surgery anesthesia, managing peri-operative anticoagulation, and best practices for permanent vascular/thoracic access.
