Welcome Message of the Congress President 2021
Dear Colleagues and Friends!
Planning for the 13th annual ESMINT congress is well underway. As you can imagine, organizing a meeting in these uncertain times is extra challenging.
At present, we are planning a hybrid meeting: the physical meeting will take place in the usual location at the Acropolis Convention Centre in Nice, France from September 8-10, with the parallel possibility of virtual attendance for those of our colleagues unable to travel at that time.
We are currently assembling an interesting programme covering a wide variety of subjects of interest to colleagues in the field of neurointerventions. We are glad to have – as in previous years – joint sessions with our colleagues from Neurosurgery (EANS), Neurointerventional Surgery (SNIS), and Neurology (ESO).
The 13th ESMINT congress will give us all the opportunity to meet with friends, colleagues, exhibitors, and experts in the field in order to broaden our knowledge, exchange ideas, develop new projects, and have a good time at a wonderful location.
As such, you are cordially invited to participate in the Congress, and I very much look forward to welcoming you to beautiful Nice in September, or via the virtual platform.
In the light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic we are committed to providing regular updates on the advancement of the programme and the organization of the 13th ESMINT Congress.

About the annual ESMINT Congresses
The annual ESMINT Congress is growing year by year. The goal of the conference is to facilitate interdisciplinary discussions between interventional neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, and scientists. These discussions refer to indications, strategies, techniques, complications, and morbi-mortality in vascular interventional neuroradiology, endovascular neurosurgery, and vascular neurology.
Moreover, the annual ESMINT Congress is to provide information on new technologies and practices. Attendees also receive the results from studies, both ongoing and completed.
Additionally, we wish to stimulate debates and controversial opinions based on case discussions, operators’ experience and the results of most recent studies.
The ESMINT Congress is a conference on interventional neuroradiology and endovascular neurosurgery. It has a strong focus on education as many ESMINT training activities. Usually, parts of the programme are compiled with partner societies with an overlapping interest in interventional neuroradiology and endovascular neurosurgery.
GET INVOLVED! ESMINT is not a typical formal congress. Send us your ideas for subjects you would like us to cover and help us design the program. We want this meeting to open our minds, enlarge our knowledge and eventually influence our practice.
