We are delighted to invite you to Groningen for the 68th Congress of the European Society of Cardiovascular and Endovascular Surgery (ESCVS).

The ESCVS is the oldest society in Europe in the cardiac and vascular surgical field and was founded by René Leriche and R. Dos Santos in 1950. It has a strong tradition of merging specialties to provide better care for patients. The Society is actively engaged in projects involving its young members, to train them and give them the experience and knowledge of new techniques and materials.
