David Taggart was a giant of coronary surgery. He championed evidence-based CABG and taught generations how to perform it better. He taught us to question outcome measures and scrutinise how data are reported. A formidable legacy. Condolences to his family

Repair > Replacement for Mitral Valve disease in middle-income settings. 🩺
Our national cohort analysis shows superior mid-term survival and significant cost savings, yet repair remains underutilized. Time to bridge the gap!
See you at #AATS2026 for the full breakdown.
