Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I am pleased to cordially invite you to the 5th AAPCHS Annual Meeting, which will take place on September 5-6, 2025, in Bali, Indonesia. This meeting will be held in conjunction with the 15th Annual Scientific Meeting of The Indonesian Association of Thoracic, Cardiac, and Vascular Surgeons.

This conference will bring together experts and professionals from around the world especially from Asia to discuss the latest developments in pediatric cardiac surgery. Our theme for this year is “DORV Repair: A to Z.” We hope young surgeons from Asia will take this opportunity to deepen their understanding of DORV, a condition that requires a comprehensive grasp of anatomy and surgical techniques. We will also offer a hands-on course using a Silicone 3D heart model to teach the techniques and common pitfalls of DORV surgery.

Bali, with its stunning landscapes, tranquil beaches, and rich cultural heritage, provides the perfect backdrop for this prestigious gathering of professionals. Whether you are attending to expand your knowledge, share insights, or simply enjoy Bali’s unique blend of tranquility and adventure, we are confident that this event will be both enriching and memorable. We look forward to welcoming you to Bali for an inspiring and unforgettable experience.
