The 53rd VEITHsymposium is a five-day international vascular and endovascular meeting at New York Hilton Midtown, 1335 Avenue of the Americas, New York, United States, from 17 to 21 November 2026. The official 2026 programme brochure confirms the 53rd edition, dates and Cleveland Clinic sponsorship. The registration page contains a leftover sentence describing a fifty-second year; the current dated programme and homepage identify this edition as the 53rd.
Scientific programme. VEITHsymposium’s format emphasises short, rapid-fire expert presentations, current evidence, new technologies and debates about changing vascular practice. The official website describes more than 1,300 presentations in over 100 sessions. The published five-day session structure is indexed with its individual presentation text, named presenters and local New York times; the complete 140-page programme brochure is also attached. Themes cover transcatheter valve treatment, ascending and descending aortic disease, endovascular aneurysm repair, peripheral arterial disease and chronic limb-threatening ischemia, carotid revascularization, vascular robotics and imaging, venous disease, pulmonary embolism, stroke and hemodialysis access.
Specialty components. AIMsymposium is integrated into the meeting. The Thursday Multidisciplinary Stroke Prevention and Treatment component runs from 7:45 AM to 12:15 PM in Murray Hill Suite West, and Thursday AIM is listed from 7:50 AM to 6:20 PM in Americas Hall 1 South. Saturday Hemodialysis Access runs from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The Venous, Venous and More Venous workshop is on Wednesday 18 November, 1:00–6:00 PM, in Americas Hall 1 South and is explicitly non-CME, separately charged and space-limited. The Fellows’ Career Development programme on Friday 20 November is also non-CME. These components are retained within the main event rather than represented as duplicate conferences.
Faculty and partners. The meeting’s current faculty directory verifies Oliver O. Aalami of Stanford University and Sutter Health; Anne L. Abbott of Monash University and Knox Private Hospital; Steven D. Abramowitz of Georgetown University and MedStar Washington Hospital Center; Enrico Ascher of New York University and NYU Langone Medical Center; and Ali F. AbuRahma of West Virginia University’s Charleston Division and Charleston Area Medical Center. The programme names Frank J. Veith as chairman and Gustavo S. Oderich as executive director. Cleveland Clinic and Hilton are credited on the cover; all visible exhibitors are recorded as exhibitors, not invented sponsor tiers.
Accreditation and registration. Cleveland Clinic designates the live activity for a maximum of 46.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ and separately 46.25 ANCC credits. These exact decimal awards are preserved, not rounded into an integer field and not combined. Phone registration closed on 11 November, but the organiser explicitly says online registration remains open and publishes on-site hours for 16–21 November. Consequently the event is not marked registration closed. The current full-meeting table lists physicians $1,449, medical students $529, qualifying non-US fellows/residents and advanced-practice clinicians $729, and nurses/technologists and non-finishing US trainees $679. Category verification letters and grant-supported complimentary trainee eligibility are required where stated. Because this table uses a bare dollar sign, no currency code or SAR conversion is assumed. Single-component and workshop prices are not misrepresented as full-conference fees.
