2024 Abstract Submission Guidelines
2024 ASC Policy on Conflict of Interest


PLEASE NOTE THAT CASE REPORTS MAY NOT BE SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION AT THE 19TH ANNUAL ACADEMIC SURGICAL CONGRESS MEETING

NOTE: ALL content authors are required to disclose any financial relationship(s) with an ACCME-defined ineligible company (‘industry’). Also, no content author may be an owner or employee of an ineligible company.

Important Notice: Given our record-breaking abstract submission numbers over the past few years-and in order to maximize the number of participants in the ASC - we will continue to limit the number of abstracts that an individual may present to TWO. There is no limit to the number of abstracts that may be submitted, and if more than two abstracts are accepted, the two highest scoring abstracts will be selected for presentation. Please note that there is no limit on the number of abstracts an individual may be listed as an author on.
