A Legacy of Vascular Excellence

The 16th HKL Vascular Conference is the premier annual gathering of vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, vascular medicine specialists, and allied health professionals in Malaysia.

Hosted by the Department of Vascular Surgery at Hospital Kuala Lumpur, first pioneered by the late Datuk Dr Zainal Ariffin and continued by Datuk Dr Hanif Hussein, this conference has established itself as the definitive platform for advancing vascular care across Southeast Asia.

This year's programme covers the full breadth of modern vascular surgery — from complex aortic reconstructions to the latest endovascular techniques — with special emphasis on outcomes relevant to the Malaysian patient population.
