Overview

The past several years have seen marked improvements in the management of patients with HPB malignancy, which has led to better outcomes and longer survival. The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center HPB Commemoration consists of three parts:

(1) A memorial Symposium to Leslie H. Blumgart for his many contributions to HPB surgery
(2) A Symposium to celebrate the career of Nancy E. Kemeny and her life’s work treating metastatic liver cancer
(3) An update of advances from the David M. Rubenstein Center for Pancreatic Cancer Research

While the contributions of many individual investigators have played a role, two towering figures stand out for their significant and far-reaching work that has fundamentally changed practice in many ways. The first two days of this event celebrate the careers and many contributions of Dr. Leslie Blumgart, who sadly passed away in September 2022, and Dr. Nancy Kemeny, who will leave the practice of oncology later this year.

Thursday, November 30
The Leslie H. Blumgart, MD Memorial Symposium

Leslie H. Blumgart, MD was an internationally renowned surgeon, one of a small group of pioneering investigators who established the foundation for safe and effective hepatic resection. His work helped transform hepatic resection from a high-risk and highly morbid procedure to a routine operation that is now performed widely for many indications. This change, a major factor in the improved outcome for many patients with primary and metastatic liver cancer, has benefited tens of thousands of patients over the years.

The Leslie H. Blumgart, MD Memorial Symposium brings together friends, colleagues, and former trainees in a tribute to one of the great leaders in academic surgery. The program celebrates his life and how his immense contributions impacted the field of HPB surgery – and also his personal influence on the careers of many of us. This symposium will conclude with a Networking Reception from 5:30-7:00 pm.

Who Should Attend

The target audience for this Symposium includes medical and surgical oncologists, gastroenterologists, internal medicine specialists, pathologists, geneticists, pharmacists, supportive care staff, advanced practice practitioners, nurses, trainees, and other disciplines.

Objectives
  1. Summarize the evolving role of liver resection for managing hepatic malignancy
  2. Discuss the role of regional chemotherapy in the management of metastatic and primary liver cancer
  3. Implement recent advances in pancreatic cancer research
