Hyderabad: Leading interventional cardiologists and structural heart specialists from various parts of the country and globe are taking part in the fourth edition of Hyderabad Valves 2026, a biennial conference on minimally invasive heart valve treatments.
Inaugurated virtually by Apollo Hospitals Group Joint Managing Director Dr. Sangeetha Reddy, the two-day summit features 26 live transcatheter cases, including transmissions from the USA, Europe, and Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills.
Led by Course Directors Dr. P.C. Rath and Dr. Manoj K. Agarwala, the meeting highlights advanced interventions such as TAVR/TAVI, TMVR, and complex structural repairs.
Dr. Rath said that the future of cardiology relies on close multidisciplinary collaboration between interventional cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons rather than competition, ensuring superior patient outcomes.
Organisers also stressed the public importance of early diagnosis for symptoms like persistent breathlessness or unusual fatigue, particularly for older adults facing aortic stenosis or valve disorders who may benefit from catheter-based alternatives to open-heart surgery.
