EDITODear Friends and Colleagues,

Eurovalve congress is a European congress for cardiac surgeon, cardiologists, sonographers and trainees. The next edition of this rotating congress will take place at the Hotel Liège Congrès, in October 28 & 29, 2021. As you know, valvular heart disease is getting more and more frequent and now represents one of the most frequent heart diseases. Incredible advances have occurred in the last few years about valves diseases, concerning both their evalu-ation and their management. This year again we always intend to favour more interactivity and discussions, especially thanks to several symposia, industry symposia, controversies and round tables with expert’s panel. Join us, you will learn more, test your knowledge and share, for sure you will enjoy it!

Kind regards.Patrizio Lancellotti, Philippe Pibarot, José Luis Zamorano, Khalil Fattouch, Gilbert Habib, Jeroen J. Bax & Mani Vannan
