Już w kwietniu Warszawa stanie się kardiologiczną stolicą Europy. W dniach 5–7 kwietnia 2017 roku na XXI edycji Warsztatów Kardiologii Interwencyjnej – Warsaw Course on Cadiovascular Interventions (WCCI) spotkają się najlepsi specjaliści z całego świata, by wymieniać się doświadczeniami w kardiologii i kardiochirurgii.

WCCI jest oficjalną konferencją Asocjacji Interwencji Sercowo-Naczyniowych Polskiego Towarzystwa Kardiologicznego (AISN PTK) i jest przez nią akredytowana. Multimedialne prezentacje, symultaniczne konferencje oraz interaktywne warsztaty praktyczne, organizowane przez Fundację Wspierania Kardiologii Interwencyjnej odbywają się pod patronatem Kliniki Kardiologii Inwazyjnej CSK MSWiA oraz Kliniki Kardiologii i Angiologii Interwencyjnej Instytutu Kardiologii w Warszawie. WCCI jest jednym z trzech najważniejszych i największych międzynarodowych kongresów kardiologicznych w naszym kraju.

Tematyka warsztatów koncentruje się głównie na problematyce związanej z rozpoznawaniem i leczeniem ostrych zespołów wieńcowych, stabilną chorobą wieńcową, wadami strukturalnymi i zastawkowymi serca oraz interwencjami w miażdżycy tętnic obwodowych.
