hIt is with great pleasure and honour that I invite you to join us for the 21st World Congress for Esophageal Diseases hosted by the International Society for Diseases of the Esophagus on Sept 18-20, 2025 in the beautiful city of Brisbane, Australia.  

The ISDE is a vibrant multidisciplinary community of physicians, allied health personnel, and scientists all unified in their interest and focus on both benign and malignant conditions affecting this physiologically and anatomically unique organ. 

We are building on the huge success of our most recent meeting in Edinburgh, Scotland, where we had 850 registrants from over 50 countries providing varied perspectives of both benign and malignant diseases of the esophagus with broad representation from gastroenterologists, surgeons, medical and radiation oncologists, pathologists, scientists, nurses, dietitians, industry partners, and patient advocates.    

The ISDE is laser focused on embracing and expanding on this diversity as we move across the Globe to the next two meetings, first in Australia for 2025, followed by the 2026 meeting in Kyoto, Japan…….
