Trans Axillary TAVI performed at @PICMTI_OFFICIAL with my mentor @aliraza987_raza for a patient with unsuitable femoral access. Another high risk case turned into a new lease on life.

Successful Allegra TAVI valve deployment at @PICMTI_OFFICIAL, another important step forward for structural heart interventions in Pakistan.
Special thanks to @KasparasBriedis and @aliraza987_raza for their expert proctorship and support.

Big day at @PICMTI_OFFICIAL!
We just hit our 100th TAVI procedure. A massive thank you to Dr. @aliraza987_raza and the entire team for their excellence. Proud to have been part of all 100 cases.
Check out the team celebrating the big 1-0-0! 👇

First ever deployment of Edwards Sapien TAVI valve in Pakistan at PIC Peshawar
Welcome @EdwardsLifesci to Pakistan
Proud to be part of this milestone for structural heart care
Grateful to proctors @HatimLawati @aliraza987_raza

Historic day at Peshawar Institute of Cardiology! Today, we successfully performed Pakistan’s first Hydra Valve TAVI, marking a new chapter in structural heart interventions.
Proud moment for the team and cardiac care in Pakistan.

NOBLE 10-year data at #TCT2025 confirm that IVUS-guided PCI achieves long-term mortality nearly identical to CABG,while angiography-only PCI lags behind. With lower TLR (5% vs 12%) and optimal stent expansion, IVUS defines the future of precision PCI.

2025 ESC/EACTS Guidelines on Valvular Heart Disease!
Earlier AVR in severe AS
Stronger role for TEER & tricuspid repair
LAA closure emphasized
SAPT post-TAVI
Clear shift towards earlier, safer & patient-centred care.

“Stone whisper technique”: In CTO with ambiguous proximal cap and severe calcification, IVL enabled IVUS penetration and wire crossing
A novel approach to crack calcium and clarify anatomy.

AMAC technique (Anchor Mother→Advance Child) for uncrossable calcific CTOs published @EuroIntervention.
Failed standard PCI attempts.
Anchor guide catheter ("Mother") → advance device ("Child") through impenetrable lesions. A rescue strategy for uncrossability

Coronary obstruction remains a rare but devastating TAVI complication—especially in valve-in-valve, low coronar height, or narrow sinus anatomies.

Peshawar Institute of Cardiology achieves Pakistan’s 1st Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) procedure!
A game-changer for treating complex heart disease. Proud to pioneer this tech for our patients. 🇵🇰❤️

We set a new national record with 7 TAVI procedures in 1 day,handling complex cases like a 90° horizontal aorta, chimney procedures,2 uncrossable valves requiring parallel balloon-assisted crossing. All patients recovered well.Thanks to proctors

A 58 years man, HTN, with angina CCS III
Angio showed CTO of LAD
Double Stick Approach was used. Crossed the lesion with Pilot 150. Contralateral injection confirmed wire in the true lumen.
After predilation, 2 stents were placed, and 2 DEBs were used in the distal LAD.
Retrieved a large clot from ICA terminus from a 64 years gentleman presented with right-side stroke for 4 hours.
