The third edition of this educational programme took place 22–24 November under the direction of leading members of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) and EACTS, and prestigious surgeons from Latin America.
The two-and-a-half-day conference was held at the International Convention Centre in Cancun, Mexico – a very large venue fit to gather the more than 300 in attendance from Central and South America, as well as many other countries all over the world. About one fifth of the attendees were able to get a scholarship of close to $1,000 provided through the Thoracic Surgery Foundation thanks to the generous donations of Edwards and GoreTex. A special fee was also offered for young surgeons coming from Latin America.
