@jamiemccabeMD @kalazizimd Next, Karim Al-Azizi, MD, FSCAI takes a look at the current landscape—foundational principles, key techniques, and where electrosurgery can meaningfully improve procedural success in structural heart interventions. #SCAI2026 @jamiemccabeMD @kalazizimd

Great day at #SCAI2026! We started with a hearty breakfast symposium packed with #TAVI and tricuspid #TEER evidence, followed by an insightful abstract presentation on mitral TEER outcomes. Special thanks to Drs. @Anita_asgar, @PaulMahoneyMD, Atman Shah, and Karim Al-Azizi for leading these discussions.

Next, Karim Al-Azizi, MD, FSC,AI presents outcomes of mitral #TEER in patients with mitral annular calcification—R2P access offers a feasible alternative to CFA for PAD revascularization with comparable procedural success, but signal for higher mid-term reintervention underscores the need for further study and device optimization.

That’s a wrap for this year’s #CRT2026 It was great reconnecting with mentors, colleagues, and friends while also making new ones along the way.@kalazizimd @imranbaig10 @CRT_meeting

Great discussions @CRT_meeting 2026 in Washington, DC. Enjoyed participating as a speaker and moderator discussing closure of Cardiac Defects and Paravalvular Leaks. Always a pleasure reconnecting with colleagues and exchanging ideas that move the field forward. Thanks to @ronwaksman and the CRT team. See you next year. @kalazizimd @mirvatalasnag @AlkashkariWail @BinAbdulHak_A

Away from structural interventions, my Ramadan side hustle for many years has been serving as an Imam. A recording from tonight’s first Taraweeh prayer. Ramadan is a month of fasting, prayer, and reflection. Ramadan Mubarak to my friends in cardiology and to everyone observing around the world. 🌙 Will see you after Ramadan in Riyadh at @TCT_ME_ @BinAbdulHak_A @AlkashkariWail @mirvatalasnag @amrmohsen213 @MarwanSaadMD @aelsab @MusaSharkawi @MohammedQintar @mhammadah @kalazizimd @AlhijjiM @JDDCFratti @acamajmd @HRahbi
