Second Heart 2 Heart Talks

LAU Medical Center–Rizk Hospital, Dr. Michel E. Mawad Block D, auditorium, 5th floor

Since the first TAVI was performed in Lebanon at our medical center in July 2012, the field of valvular heart disease treatment has undergone a remarkable transformation.

Today, innovative approaches in structural heart interventions have turned our daily work in the catheterization lab into a dynamic and rewarding journey, one filled with both challenges and achievements.

From the outset of cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology at our institution, a close and collaborative relationship between cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and cardiac anesthesiologists has been our guiding model. Long before the term “Heart Team” became widespread two decades later, we had already embraced this multidisciplinary philosophy as the cornerstone of optimal patient care.

As our expertise deepens, so too must our collaboration. This symposium will explore the evolving frontiers of cardiovascular medicine, from the management of valvular heart disease to structural heart interventions.

Our 2^nd Heart 2 Heart Talks will be held at the LAU Medical Center–Rizk Hospital on April 18, 2026, with the endorsement of the Lebanese Society of Cardiology.

Live case transmissions and an engaging spectrum of complex, real-world clinical scenarios will provide fertile ground for discussion. Throughout the day, we are honored to welcome a distinguished faculty of renowned experts who will share their insights and experience.

Under the auspices of our Scientific Societies, and with the support of our valued partners in the industry, we aim to deliver a symposium that is not only highly scientific and well-balanced but also at the cutting edge of cardiovascular technology.

Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits will be granted by LAU’s Continuing Medical Education and Professional Development Office.

We look forward to welcoming you.

The program and registration link will be posted soon.
