The World Society for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery has accomplished much since its establishment in 2006. We have organized highly successful Scientific Meetings held around the world from Washington, USA in 2007, to Cairns, Australia during the 5th World Congress in 2009 and Istanbul in 2011. Not to mention our World Summit on the status of pediatric cardiac surgery services and education in Montreal, Canada in 2008.

The Third Joint Meeting of the CHSS and the ECHSA was held on September 13-15 in Chicago, Illinois. It follows two previous joint meetings. The first one took place in Montreal in 2004, hosted by Dr. Tchervenkov. The second one was in Warsaw and was hosted by Dr. Maruszewski. The bar was left very high by both of these meetings.
