ABTS 75th Anniversary The American Board of Thoracic Surgery (ABTS) will be celebrating its 75th Anniversary in 2023. The Board of Thoracic Surgery was founded on October 2, 1948 through a coordinated plan between the American Association for Thoracic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. In 1971, the Board of Thoracic Surgery became known as the American Board of Thoracic Surgery when it was recognized as a primary board by the American Board of Medical Specialties.
Since its formation in 1948, the ABTS has issued almost 9,200 primary thoracic surgery certificates and over 250 congenital cardiac surgery certificates. The ABTS is sincerely grateful to the 160 Directors that have served on the Board along with countless guest examiners and question writers over the past 75 years.
