Dr.Umar Ashfaq Khan 🇵🇰

Alhumdulilah! 🇵🇰 On Pakistan’s Independence Day, We at Peshawar Institute of Cardiology has set a new world record — performing 14 #TAVI procedures in a single day! 🏆 @GWR, history made in the heart of KP! 💚 #14on14

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. #CardioTwitter #TAVI #TransAxillaryTAVI #StructuralHeart

@DrAlsaiediAB @AlkashkariWail @rashaalbawardy @AlrahimiJ @bogamisa @MogneeA @DFahadAlmehmadi @ibrahimjelaidan @AtifAlqubbany @atifalzahrani Beautifully executed. did you deploy Sentinel or any other embolic protection during the procedure?

🔹 Left native BASILICA for a patient with severe AS, low LM ostium height (6 mm) and shallow SOV 🔹 Left coronary re-access ✅ @AlkashkariWail @rashaalbawardy @AlrahimiJ @bogamisa @MogneeA @DFahadAlmehmadi @ibrahimjelaidan @AtifAlqubbany @atifalzahrani

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. #TAVI #StructuralHeart #Cardiology #PIC

@DrMAbdurRauf1 Congratulations 🎊

ALHAMDULELLAH

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! 👇 #TAVI #HeartTeam #100Cases

@DrMAbdurRauf1 @EdwardsLifesci @HatimLawati @aliraza987_raza Thank you 😊

@documar @EdwardsLifesci @HatimLawati @aliraza987_raza Great...keep it up

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 #TAVI #Cardiology #Pakistan #StructuralHeart

In all my years of practice, I have realised that if there is one core trait a doctor must have, it's empathy

🫀 First-in-human valve-in-valve TAVI in mechanical prostheses Bench-to-bedside study: disc dislodgement & retrieval followed by successful TAVI. Published in European Heart Journal. 👉 academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva… @escardio @PCRonline @secardiologia @CNIC_CARDIO @sacyl @TCTMD

Must-see #TAVR save: Evolut FX+ embolized to ascending aorta. Snaring triggered extensive iatrogenic dissection of arch. Aortogram speaks for itself. Percutaneous bailout by vascular team with Gore thoracic stent graft (37×100). Dissection detected 09:11. Case closed 10:00AM

Is even mild PVL no longer acceptable in #TAVR? Our editorial on the #OCEAN-TAVI trial is now published in JACC: Interventions. authors.elsevier.com/a/1m7M36uPJvyN…

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. #HydraValve #TAVI #PIC #Cardiology

Directed Reverse CART is the perfect scenario to apply the OVERLAP VIEW #3Dwiring concept in #CTO. Point retrograde wire tip precisely at balloon with a single wire rotation!

Role of preprocedural CT in assessment & management of access site complications in patient undergoing transfemoral TAVI Preprocedural CT helps to assess : Vessel Caliber Vessel Tortuousity Distribution of Ca Optimal puncture site Alternative Access #TAVR #Imagefirst #1/3

TAVI in patients with concomitant coronary artery disease... Here is the available evidence from: ☆ ACTIVATION Trial ☆ NOTION 3 Trial & ☆ FAITAVI Trial #TAVI #PCI @PCRonline @APSIC6

My Best OCT Image! 🧶 This image is ‘one in a million’ - literally, because I looked at 100s of 1000s of imaging frames this week. 😂 This shows the final appearance of an LCX treated with scoring PTCA, NC 🎈, and DCB. Analysis to follow…

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. #IVUS #PCI #CABG #Cardiology
