  • Howard Langstein: From Scalpel to Strategy - My Journey Beyond the Operating Room | SurgeON Events

    Watch the first 8 minutes free. {ShortSummary}. FULL ACCESS unlocks the full lecture. < Back TITLE Howard Langstein: From Scalpel to Strategy - My Journey Beyond the Operating Room TALK INFO In this talk, Dr. Howard N. Langstein ’s path through medicine is as carefully designed as the microsurgical flaps he once constructed. Known for his precision, deep thinking, and unapologetically honest mentorship, Dr. Langstein has spent decades shaping not only faces and bodies but also the very culture of academic plastic surgery. His journey began with a critical decision: to enter medical school, driven by curiosity and a deep desire to blend science, art, and human connection. That foundational passion carried him through rigorous training in General Surgery, and ultimately Plastic Surgery, where he found a home in the intricate world of microvascular reconstruction. Dr. Langstein’s early career included formative roles in Pittsburgh, but it was at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center where he solidified his reputation as both a technical virtuoso and an inspiring educator. As associate professor and director of the Plastic Surgery Graduate Medical Education Programs, he helped shape one of the world's top microsurgical training environments. His surgical focus—particularly in head and neck reconstruction and post-oncologic breast surgery—made him a sought-after clinician and thought leader. In 2006, Dr. Langstein brought his expertise to the University of Rochester Medical Center, serving as Chief of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. There, he not only expanded the department’s scope and academic influence, but also introduced a culture of collegiality, critical thinking, and multidisciplinary innovation. His belief in the power of co-surgery to improve patient outcomes led to landmark research, including the widely cited systematic review and meta-analysis on co-surgeons in microvascular breast reconstruction. Even as he transitioned into retirement, Dr. Langstein’s influence endures—not just in the hundreds of successful surgeries he’s performed, but in the countless trainees he’s mentored, many of whom now lead programs of their own. His voice remains active in the field through publications, teaching, and thought-provoking conversations like this one. A thinker, a teacher, a tactician, and a craftsman—Dr. Howard Langstein embodies the soul of plastic surgery. His legacy lies in his meticulous technique, his intellectual rigor, and the generations of surgeons who carry forward his ethos. THIS EVENT IS ACCREDITED You can watch the first 8 minutes for free.

FULL ACCESS unlocks the full lecture. < Back TITLE Annie Li: Monitoring Sarcomas with Novel Radiation Sparing Technologies TALK INFO The landscape of tumor monitoring is changing, and Dr. Li’s work in sarcomas is a perfect example of this revolutionary shift. By using liquid biopsies to detect EWSR1 gene fusions in cell-free DNA, Dr. Li offers a precise, non-invasive method for tracking sarcoma progression—without the risks associated with repeated radiation exposure. This technique allows for personalized monitoring, identifying unique fusion breakpoints in each patient and creating customized assays for real-time tumor tracking. It’s a breakthrough aligned with the principles of precision medicine , where treatment and monitoring are tailored to the individual. Surgeons need to understand that this is more than just a technological advancement; it’s a paradigm shift in how we approach tumor management. By reducing reliance on traditional imaging, this method not only enhances monitoring accuracy but also improves long-term patient care. Dr. Li’s work is setting the stage for a new standard in cancer monitoring, and it’s one we all need to pay attention to. THIS EVENT IS ACCREDITED You can watch the first 8 minutes for free.
