CCA 2020 postponed

Dear colleagues

It is with great regret that we announce the postponement of the 3rd International Expert Meeting for the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma in Mainz due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The meeting will be rescheduled in 2021 in Mainz.

We will inform you about the new date on this website www.cca-2020.eu shortly.

With long-term protection measures against the coronavirus now in place, restrictions on public gatherings and flight schedules unlikely to be resumed soon, postponement had become inevitable.
Ensuring the health and safety of our participants, staff and the greater community is our first priority.

All registered participants and abstract submitters will be contacted to discuss the transfer of registrations and abstracts to the new conference date.

In the meantime, we wish you and your loved ones good health.

We will be delighted to welcome you in Mainz 2021!

Yours faithfully
Professor Dr. med. Hauke Lang

WELCOME

Dear colleagues

It is my great pleasure to invite you to the 3rd International Expert Meeting for the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma in Mainz, June 12-13, 2020. This meeting continues a series of expert symposia starting with the international Expert Meeting in Verona in 2017 and followed by Amsterdam 2018 with focus on the interdisciplinary treatment of cholangiocarcinoma.

The management of cholangiocarcinoma remains a major challenge. With the establishment of modern surgical, interventional and systemic treatment options over the last few years, the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma more than ever requires an interdisciplinary approach and open dialogue.

Therefore, the 3rd International Expert Meeting in Mainz will bring together renowned specialists in the field of surgery, medical oncology, pathology, endoscopy, diagnostic and interventional radiology as well as radiotherapy. Experts from all around the world will meet in Mainz for an intensive two-day discussion on diverse aspects of cholangiocarcinoma.

The program 2020 comprises most relevant topics and critical issues on the diagnosis and management of intrahepatic, perihilar as well as distal cholangiocarcinoma: as observed in other cancer types, molecular profiling has started to gain increasing relevance in the treatment of advanced cholangiocarcinoma. Moreover, novel diagnostic approaches as well as tools for local therapy have been developed, which require particular attention.
Furthermore, controversies on the optimal preoperative work-up including biliary drainage as well as potential indications for neoadjuvant and adjuvant targeted therapy will be major topics.
Also, IgG4-associated cholangitis and Klatskin-mimicking lesions that are still highly difficult differential diagnoses and pose major therapeutical problems will be highlighted.
Finally, operative techniques, pitfalls in surgery and surgical strategies are presented focusing on vascular resection, the laparoscopic and robotic approach as well as ALPPS.

In addition to invited presentations held by experts in their field, open paper discussions, poster and video presentations are highly encouraged.

The Expert Meeting will be preceded by a Postgraduate Course “biliary”.

Looking forward to welcoming you in Mainz!

Yours,

Professor Dr. med. Hauke Lang
