7th Abu Dhabi International Vascular Conference

7th Abu Dhabi International Vascular Conference is organized by Mena Conference, Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City (SSMC), Emirates Vascular Surgery Society (EVSS) and will be held from Oct 24 - 25, 2025 at Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Description:
This year, the theme is “Act Fast, Save Lives: Raising Awareness of Time-Critical Vascular Emergencies” reflecting our commitment to raising awareness of vascular diseases. These conditions, often silent until they are not, necessitate a unified front of professionals across several specialities for effective prevention, early detection, and treatment. Our conference is poised to serve as a beacon for such collaboration, aiming to illuminate the complexities of vascular diseases through a collective exchange of knowledge.

Our focus is to delve into preventive measures and therapeutic strategies that can detect and prevent progression of these conditions.

Our conference will feature sessions steered by distinguished leaders from various disciplines, including vascular surgery, radiology, medicine, podiatry, neurology, cardiology and critical care. They will present a holistic view of patient management, encompassing both traditional practices and innovative treatments.

Topics will cover the spectrum of vascular disease, such as peripheral arterial disease, aortic pathology, venous disease, diabetic foot complications, renal access surgery, cerebrovascular disease and beyond. Interactive discussions, debates, and panel insights are designed to deepen our collective understanding and educational pursuit in vascular healthcare.
