Interview with Pr Thierry FOLLIGUET
Pr. Folliguet was recently named chief of cardiac surgery at the University Hospital of Nancy. In 2014, he will be co-organizing the 63rd ESCVS conference in Nice, April 24-27. Pr. Folliguet explains in this interview some of the program highlights for next year’s event, including the role of ECC and ECMO in vascular surgery and special sessions on thoracic aortic aneurysm, TAVI and carotid surgery. ESCVS is also conducting special outreach in 2014 to attract young surgeons, both in Europe and around the world, to participate at the Congress.
