Present Your Medically Challenging Cases at the 2006 Annual Meeting

Last year a new section was introduced at the ASA Annual Meeting allowing physicians to present medically challenging cases that they have managed. The section was a resounding success with more than 80 presentations. Physicians from all over the world came to the Annual Meeting to present their difficult cases. Discussion was lively.
Why don’t you consider presenting at this year’s meeting? The section provides a lively and informative forum for physicians to share their experiences, teach others how they handled a difficult situation and receive feedback as to how others might have proceeded under the same circumstances.

If you have an interesting case that you think others would enjoy discussing, please submit it for consideration. Medically challenging cases must be submitted online on the Annual Meeting Web site at <www2.ASAhq.org>. Deadline for submission is August 1, 2006.
