At that time only the North American conference existed for clinical researchers and basic scientists to present data from stroke research. The prospect to establish another European stroke meeting was highly challenging. After biannual meetings, 1992 in Lausanne and 1994 in Stockholm and increasing attendance, however, the ESC became an annual, international, well-received and continuously growing stroke conference.

The association between cancer and thrombosis has been known for more than a century and, since its original description, this association has had several definitions, including: 1. The increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) as a complication of Cancer (as first described by Armand Trousseau in 1865); 2. The increased risk of an occult cancer in patients with idiopathic VTE (also described by Trousseau); 3. the likelihood that tumors possessed characteristics that activate blood coagulation (again, an observation of Trousseau); and, finally, 4. The possibility of a relation between the clotting mechanisms and the enhancement of tumor growth and the development of metastases (as postulated by Billroth in 1878).
