Over the past 13 years, the ASC has become the premier gathering place for surgeon-scientists offering unparalleled opportunities for scientific exchange and networking with peers. Each year, the ASC registration has grown and the program has become more diverse, with programming in basic science, education, health policy, outcomes research, global health, leadership, and many other topics relevant to academic surgery. This year’s program, led by Rebekah R. White, MD of the SUS and Eugene S. Kim, MD of the AAS, promises to be the most diverse, vibrant, and exciting yet! This year the AAS Founders lecture will be presented by Layton F. Rikkers, MD and the SUS Joel J. Roslyn lecture by Herbert J. Zeh III, MD. We also invite you to attend each of the AAS and SUS Presidential Sessions and Addresses, which will discuss broad topics of critical relevance to the discipline today. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we hope that you will develop new friendships and collaborations, and that these new relationships will enhance your goals of performing the highest quality research and improving patient care. The combination of cutting-edge science, dynamic speakers, and rich mentoring programs for students, residents and junior faculty will provide a week full of learning and numerous opportunities to connect with colleagues!

We report a rare case of pneumococcal endocarditis manifesting with unusual complications – meningitis and endophthalmitis. Streptococcus pneumoniae species grew from the cerebrospinal fluid. The diagnosis of native aortic valve infective endocarditis was confirmed after some delay by transesophageal echocardiography. The patient’s eye was lost because of infective complications, but his life was saved following an aggressive antibacterial therapy in combination with an immediate aortic valve replacement.
