In November 2015, Mauro Cassese was on assignment at the Hospital of Nicosia, Cyprus. On this island in the heart of the Mediterranean, he held one of several proctoring sessions for a multidisciplinary team. Through a “learning by doing” approach, Prof. Cassese demonstrated the percutaneous TAVI technique, with transfemoral, transapical and transaortic approaches. Pictured here is Prof. Cassese with some of the cardiac surgeon colleagues who chose to augment their skills by participating in the training session.
