Dear Friends and Colleagues, Welcome to the Carotid Aorta Peripheral Vrgent Treatment – Rome CAPVT Mundi. It is a great honour and pleasure to welcome you in this meeting organized by the School of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery of “Sapienza” University of Rome. As Program Director, I wish to enhance the skills and expand the knowledge of urgent treatment in all fields of vascular diseases. The CAPVT program would offer a unique and comprehensive update on the state of the art of the vascular pathology through authoritative lectures, debates and panel discussions. The faculty of the CAPVT has established international reputation as both clinicians and leaders. I’m honoured to welcome an extraordinary faculty of experts and an audience of clinicians from all specialties who treat the basic and advanced vascular issues that include vascular surgeons, interventional cardiologists, advanced endovascular specialists and interventional radiologists. Faculty and attendees will interact on about the standard of care and alternative options in specific patient cases with special emphasis how to perform complex interventional procedures. I hope that the quality of the venue and the beautiful and charming city of Rome will add special memories to the scientific program.
