1st Baltic Cardio-Oncology Meeting Meeting Proceedings

Abstract

Cardiac complications are currently the second cause of morbidity and mortality in patients who had undergone anticancer therapy. That’s why oncologists must closely cooperate with cardiologists to ensure an optimal cardiac prevention plan. The rapid development in cardiology and oncology makes it necessary to establish channels of fast-track exchange of knowledge and experience between them. For this specific purpose, on 24 November 2018, a conference entitled the “1st Baltic Cardio-Oncology Meeting” was organized at the Gdynia by the: (1) Cardiology and Heart Electrotherapy Clinic and (2) Oncology and Radiotherapy Clinic and Hematology and Transplantology Clinic of the Medical University of Gdańsk.
