SUMMARY:KOL Forum 5: Aortic
DESCRIPTION:We are very proud to announce the first aortic KOL Forum in the series! \nKey Opinion Leader Forum 5: Aortic – Uncomplicated type B aortic dissection – decision doubts and future perspectives \nYou will be able to pose your questions to our panel: KOLs Firas Mussa and Jacob Butz Lilly\, as well as Zoran Rancic\, the Aortic Pathway Lead. \nKOL Forum 5: Aortic ticket – Members only event \n \nNot yet a member?\n→ JOIN THE ESVS COMMUNITY TODAY \nObjective:\nDo you have a challenging case? Are you unsure how to treat aortic issues? Do you want a different perspective? Are you a member? Then you are welcome join our new KOL Forum to hear how a KOL would treat your case! This is an educational initiative for those with moderate to advanced vascular surgery knowledge. It allows participants to ask and get a response to burning questions on moderate to difficult cases by either submitting them for possible selection in the Forum\, or via the KOL Forum case library. You can also just join and learn! The sessions are designed to: \nProvide more advanced training to experienced surgeons\nProvide a rare opportunity to interact with THE experts in a field\nReceive advice on personal cases\nBe informal spaces\nBe exclusive for members\n________________________________________________________________________________ \nThe first aortic KOL Forum and fifth in the series\, will host Jacob Butz-Lilly and Firas Mussa \nJacob Budtz-Lilly is a senior consultant and associate professor of vascular surgery at the University Hospital of Aarhus in Aarhus\, Denmark. He is responsible for their aortic program\, which is the national referral centre for complex aortic disease in Denmark. He has a wealth of international experience and relationships\, having studied medicine both in Canada and the United States and specialising in vascular surgery in Denmark. He completed his PhD on aortic pathology in Uppsala\, Sweden\, where he went on to complete a fellowship in complex aortic treatment in both Uppsala and Malmö. Dr. Budtz-Lilly is the previous president of the Danish Vascular Society and currently sits as the chair for Vascunet\, a committee within the European Society of Vascular Surgery\, and the incoming co-chair of the International Consortium of Vascular Registries. He is a Fellow of the European Board of Vascular Surgery and a member of the European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery editorial board. He has multiple publications and is active in several trials on complex aortic disease. Dr. Budtz-Lilly is also the primary investigator for the ongoing Scandinavian trial of Uncomplicated Aortic Dissection Therapy (The SUNDAY Trial). \n  \n  \nDr. Firas Mussa is nationally and internationally recognised as a thought leader in the treatment of aortic dissection. In 2023\, the National Heart\, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded Dr. Mussa along with colleagues from SUNY Downstate and Duke University\, the IMPROVE-AD trial. This is a multi-center\, multi-million dollar\, seven-year\, randomized controlled trial examining the treatment efficacy of upfront thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) as compared to Standard of Care with medical therapy with selective TEVAR for patients with uncomplicated Type B aortic dissection (uTBAD). Prior to that\, Dr. Mussa was the first physician from New York to become a member of the prestigious International Registry of Aortic Dissection (IRAD) and leading NYU to become the first in the state dedicated for the treatment of this potentially fatal condition. Having published extensively in both basic and clinical research\, he has presented around the world. His areas of clinical expertise include open and complex endovascular repair of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms\, type B aortic dissections\, carotid artery stenosis\, lower extremity ischemia\, mesenteric ischemia\, and venous insufficiency and varicose veins. He is a Distinguished Member of the Society of Vascular Surgery. Dr. Mussa’s ultimate passion is educating the next generation of leaders in vascular surgery. He has been actively involved teaching\, mentoring and training medical students\, residents and fellows. \n\nRegistration and Cancellation policy: This is a free event for members only and pre-registration is required. You do not have to submit a case to be able to register\, but the success of the event relies on your interesting cases and you won’t even have to present it! Simply reserve your place above or get in touch with us at info@esvs.org. \nSending us your case: If you want a chance to have yours selected\, please send it in\, using the case submission template (sticking to the number of slides as much as possible\, order can be changed)\, to ciara@esvs.org by January 28th.

SUMMARY:ESVS Viva Voce practice for the FEBVS exam - February 2025
DESCRIPTION:Due to popular demand\, the ESVS Viva Voce practice for the FEBVS exam is back\, with three sessions this year! \nJoin: Sanna Kouhia and Alexander Gratl in the Februrary 2025 edition. \nObjective: The overarching objective of this course is to prepare candidates for some of the different parts of the FEBVS examination. This part of the course prepares candidates for the viva voce section of the examination. \nSmall group viva voce exam practice\, covering FEBVS curriculum topics on vascular disease. The viva voce practice will follow the format of case-based discussion with PowerPoint slides to focus questions and answers. The session is mapped to the FEBVS curriculum and covers a wide range of vascular conditions. Clinical presentation\, pathology\, investigation including imaging and treatment options will be covered during the session. Participants will be split into groups with one member of faculty for each group. Each participant will be asked to manage a clinical scenario for a minimum of 10 minutes under simulated (online) exam conditions whilst the other members of the group observe the discussion. Timings need to be strictly adhered to and will accommodate the number of candidates in each session. The timing of the session will allow for some feedback from the convenors on your performance as well as the chance for candidates to ask any questions. \nOn completion of this section of the course\, as well as assimilating knowledge of lower limb\, carotid\, aortic and venous conditions\, candidates will have a high level of understanding of how to approach answering clinical oral exam questions in an ordered\, organised and logical way. On completion of the course the candidate will have improved their chance of passing the FEBVS examination. \nTarget audience: The course is designed for all vascular surgical trainees who are considering taking professional exams in vascular surgery. \nRegistration and cancellation policy: € 25 for ESVS members and € 30 for non-members.

ENHANCE Open focuses on open repair of infrarenal aortic aneurysms\, and ENHANCE- EVAR focus on basic endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). Both courses are a part of the ESVS Aortic Fellowship Programme. \nJoin: Jonas Eiberg\, Professor of Vascular Surgery; Rebecca Andrea Conradsen Skov\, MD\, Timothy Resch\, Professor of Vascular Surgery; Michael Strøm\, MD\, PhD; Katarina Björses\, Vaiva Dabravolskaite\, Begona Gonzalo\, Thomas Nyheim and Angelos Karelis.  \nProgramme description: ENHANCE EVAR is a certifying simulation-based educational programme aiming to prepare vascular surgical trainees to perform EVAR on patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. It consists of mandatory pre-course e-learning and 3 intensive days of hands-on training in Copenhagen. We use high-fidelity simulators and the latest evidence within course design\, assessment and certification. Participants will perform case sizing and planning on 3D-sizing stations and complete several EVAR procedures as surgeons and assistants on virtual reality endovascular simulators. Everything is supervised by highly experienced EVAR surgeons guiding the participants through each step of the EVAR procedure. Trainee to trainer ratio is 2:1\, ensuring intensive learning and feedback. \nLearning objectives: To obtain technical and non-technical skills in elective infrarenal EVAR\, and make pre-trained novices ready to continue their surgical training in the operating room\, under supervision. \nFull Programme \nParticipant level: The target group is novices and advanced beginners\, typically vascular surgical trainees. Prior basic knowledge of abdominal aortic anatomy is expected. To ensure optimal learning and benefits\, completing an online questionnaire is mandatory before a seat can be given. Participants will be paired in teams of two for dyad training based on prior experience. \nCertification: You will be continuously assessed during the course and will be certified according to the validated standards developed in Copenhagen if you pass. CME accreditation is being requested for the ENHANCE EVAR programme. \nPlease note: \n\nCompleting and passing a comprehensive ENHANCE e-learning programme is mandatory before hands-on training in Copenhagen. Accepted participants will receive a link for the modular eL program 3-4 weeks before the hands-on sessions in Copenhagen.\nWe aim to improve our training through research\, and data collection for such work may be part of ENHANCE. Data collection will be strictly confidential and comply with GDPR and Danish legislation.\nParticipants for ENHANCE EVAR will be selected among the applicants based on a survey.\n\nRegistrations and cancellation policy: The course fee is €2100 for ESVS members and €2400  for non-members.
