On March 12-14, 2015, a delegation of CHEST members successfully conducted the XV CHEST Central America Pulmonary and Thoracic Surgery Congress in Managua, Nicaragua. Organized by Dr. Hector Cajigas, FCCP, and Dr. Jorge Cuadra, FCCP, this educational activity has been a yearly tradition since the year 2000 when Dr. Udaya Prakash, Master FCCP, organized the first pro bono group to attend this congress in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Since then, many members of the College have collaborated with the Central America Federation of Pulmonary and Thoracic Surgery to conduct this program, seen as one of the highlights in the region’s educational events in chest medicine.
This year’s CHEST delegation included Dr. Luisa Bazan, Section Head of Sleep Medicine, Dr. Hector R. Cajigas, FCCP, Director Pulmonary Hypertension Program, and Dr. Javier Diaz-Mendoza, FCCP, Adult Interventional Pulmonary Medicine, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, Michigan; Dr. Paul R. Boesch, Pediatric Interventional Pulmonary Medicine, Dr. Udaya Prakash, Master FCCP, and Dr. Mark Wylam, Adult and Pediatric Pulmonary Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota; and Dr. Angel Coz Yataco, FCCP, Associate Program Director Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship Program, University of Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky.
The organizers look forward to the next Congress to be held in San Jose, Costa Rica, in the spring of 2017, and to inviting CHEST members to participate on the faculty.
