The 6th Congress of the Working Group on Valvular Diseases of the Croatian Cardiac Society with international participation, CROVALV 2023, will be held on September 7th to September 9th, 2023, at the Sheraton Hotel in Zagreb. CROVALV is a bi-annual congress designed for cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, neurologists, residents, general practitioners, and for all who are professionally involved in the treatment of valvular diseases.
Much has been learned and significant progress has been made since the last CROVALV congress, especially in the field of percutaneous interventional treatment as well as in cardiac surgery, coronary artery diseases, and heart failure, which indirectly affects improvement of cardiac valve function. The goal of the CROVALV congress is to present and discuss challenges in the approach, diagnosis, and selection of the most optimal way of treating patients with valvular diseases and to help implement the latest research findings into clinical practice. In addition to invited lectures by reputable speakers from abroad, leading national experts will present best entries among the submitted abstracts.
We hope that you will once again recognize the value of this congress, and we cordially invite you to come and actively participate in jointly contributing to its quality and success.
