Meeting Report: 18th International Meeting of the Danubian League against Thrombosis and Haemorrhagic Disorders

Maintaining the tradition of past events, the 18th International Meeting of the Danubian League against Thrombosis and Haemorrhagic Disorders (DLTH) was held in the multicultural and fascinating city of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, from May 14 to 16, 2015. As underscored in the Congress welcome message, and reflecting on the past Danube meeting aiming to join a multitude of countries and people together, the Sarajevo meeting was organized with respect to multidisciplinary considerations to provide information on up-to-date scientific discoveries and practical experience within the wide spectrum of thrombosis and hemorrhagic disorders. Many new insights into issues related to platelets, coagulation and inhibitors, fibrinolysis, thrombotic disorders, and vascular biology were therefore provided. The cross-sessional scientific program is still available at the webpage (http://www.danubianleaguesarajevo.com/pdf/DLTH-2015-Final-program.pdf). Prestigiousguests from not only the countries down the Danube but also from all over the world attended the meeting. Altogether, 53 lectures, including 16 state-of-the-art lectures and presentations, were given during 4 satellite symposia and 61 posterswere presented.
