International Society for the
Study of Vascular Anomalies
ISSVA offers our members and other physicians, researchers and allied health multiple opportunities to learn about the latest advances in the field of vascular anomalies through scientific meetings, the Journal of Vascular Anomalies, the Classification and more.
The ISSVA World Congress is ISSVA's longest standing educational event. Formerly called the "Workshop", this event has been offered every two years since 1976.
The next ISSVA World Congress 2026 will be held from 19-22 May 2026 in Philadelphia, USA. As details are finalized they will be posted online.
This educational meeting is held during the years opposite the ISSVA International Congress and is next scheduled for 23-25 April 2025 in Paris, France. All meeting details can be found here: www.issva.org/2025.
We are pleased to announce that the Journal of Vascular Anomalies (JoVA) is now accepting article submissions! This journal is the official journal of ISSVA and will be an online-only, open access journal with Gresham Richter serving as the Editor-in-Chief.
