FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear colleagues,
It is a great pleasure to invite you to the 3rd Cardio-oncology Symposium, Havana 2019, which we will celebrate from December 12 to 14 of this year in Havana, Cuba.It is known that the follow-up of cancer patients is undergoing a very significant change in recent years. Progress in the diagnosis and early treatment of the disease has allowed to increase survival, but as a counterweight the use of antitumor agents causes damage to the cardiovascular system. Oncological treatment is associated with an increase in the medium and long-term incidence of heart failure, ischemic heart disease, hypertension, arrhythmias, thrombotic events and peripheral vascular disease.
The purpose of the Symposium is to jointly address important clinical issues related to the cardiovascular health of these patients. The scientific program we propose includes lectures and round tables of high scientific quality, with the presence of national and international experts in this new topic. We intend to discuss avant-garde therapies against cancer and the best practical strategies in the evaluation and treatment of heart diseases in cancer patients, from early diagnosis, treatment and long-term surveillanceThe event is intended primarily for cardiologists, oncologists, cardiotoracic surgeons, hematologists, pediatricians, geriatricians, family doctors, anesthetists, internists and intensivists, not to mention epidemiologists and specialists in pre-clinics.
For all the above we would like to count on your presence to achieve broader consensus.
Dr Manuel Bazán Milián
President Organizing Committee
