The World Society for Cardiothoracic Trauma www.wsctt.com continues its main mission of spreading medical education of such a highly sub-specialized surgery. Following the great success of the first International Congress of the Society in October 30 – November 3, 2018 in Egypt (DOI:10.4103/jctt.jctt_9_18) (www.wsctt-eg.net), we are excited to make it again. Some of the World’s renowned surgeons and authorities in the subject will be the keynote speakers in the congress also in Lofoten as it was in Egypt. For example, our Master and the legendary surgeon prof Kenneth L. Mattox, advisory Councilor of the Society and an Associate Editor of its official Journal namely, the journal of Cardiothoracic Trauma www.jctt.org, will make keynote spectacular talks twice everyday in the meeting. A great faculty will come from different parts of the World with different cardiothoracic trauma experiences. Exchange of knowledge and experiences on such a highly advanced level is one of the main idea of the congress.
Courses of Excellence by World´s experts on the most urgent procedures, together with special course and sessions on how to fix a deformed chest wall congenitally or due to trauma will be given alongside the congress. The numbers are limited to 100 delegates (surgeons, physicians, intensivists, nurses, paramedics & students). You are welcome to register specifically for the courses under registration.
Besides unique and huge doses of knowledge and experiences on cardiothoracic trauma, we choose Lofoten as it is one of the World’s most beautiful archipelago.
