Warsaw, April 9, 2014

We have a great pleasure to invite you to the 18th Warsaw Course on Cardiovascular In-terventions (WCCI), an official meeting of the Association on Cardiovascular Interventions of the Polish Cardiac Society. WCCI will take place from 9th to 11th April 2014 in Warsaw, in the InterContinental Hotel on 49 Emilii Plater Street.

On the first day the Young Practitioners Course under the auspices of the Association on Cardiovascular Interventions of the Polish Cardiac Society, European Association of Percu-taneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) and Paris Course on Revascularization (PCR)

is planned. The Course Director is Professor Jean Marco, Honorary Chairman of PCR. This event is especially dedicated for younger interventionalists from Central and Eastern Europe who already begun their traing in PCI.

As a result of our continued cooperation with EAPCI and PCR, the WCCI is a regular event in the European calendar of cardiovascular interventions. The Course is also accredited by Polish Cardiac Society and EBAC.The key subjects of the conference in 2014 shall be as follows:

• Percutaneous treatment of the left main and multivessel coronary artery disease • Percutaneous treatment of bifurcation and complex lesion • Acute coronary syndromes • Transcatheter aortic valve implantation • Mitral valve therapy • Percutaneous therapies for heart failure • Peripheral and carotid interventions • Renal sympathetic denervation for hypertension and collateral diseases • Treatment of structural heart diseases • In Cath Lab diagnostic methods: IVUS/FFR/OCT.

As WCCI program is as much practical and interactive as possible, the majority of sessions are in Learning The Technique, How Should I Treat and Case Review format. Simulator tra-ining will also be available. Also satellite symposia, presenting the new trials and devices will be a part of WCCI 2014.

We cordially invited you to participate!
