About the forum
Dear colleagues and friends!

The 19th St. Petersburg Venous Forum will be held on November 25-27, 2026 at the Congress Center of the Moskovskie Vorota Hotel.
Over the years of its existence and development, the St. Petersburg Venous Forum has fundamentally changed our understanding of modern phlebology. The Forum has become an annual international congress, which occupies a worthy place among the largest, most popular, scientifically and socially significant phlebological events. The St. Petersburg Venous Forum plays an important role in the development of phlebology not only in Russia but also abroad, and in the formation of a new generation of phlebologists. During the Forum, the realities and trends of modern international phlebology are analyzed, and the ways of its development are determined.
This year’s Forum will be held under the patronage of the World International Union of Phlebologists and Lymphologists (WUIP). We will consider the most pressing issues of anatomy, physiology, diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the veins and lymphatic system. According to your numerous requests and wishes, we have changed the structure of the Congress. A large amount of time will be allocated for panel discussions. Master classes on the most in-demand issues of practical phlebology will be prepared and conducted. Sections of the v-WIN Foundation, the University of Veins and Lymph (VLU), and the International Phlebological Forum (IPF) are planned. Colleagues from Latin America, Asia, Africa, Indochina, and Europe will take part in the discussions. The Expert Council of the St. Petersburg Association of Phlebologists will select the best reports and determine the nominees for the award of the Gold Medal “For Outstanding contribution to the development of phlebology.”
We invite you once again to enjoy professional discussions, personal meetings, the unforgettable atmosphere of Christmas St. Petersburg and the palatial beauty of the Gala Dinner.
