The 3rd Northern AVF Workshop, Perlis
The Vascular Surgery Team from Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) was pleased to travel north in support of the 3rd Northern AVF Workshop, held for the first time at Hospital Kangar, Perlis.
Our team was led by Dr Karthigesu Aimanan, with the workshop organised by Dr Muhammad Muslim, who has been instrumental in establishing and advancing AVF services in Perlis. The programme was further strengthened by the participation of Ahmad Firdaus Ahmad Lutfi, Dr Ashraf Md Razi and MA Abdul Rahim, who joined the workshop as speakers and shared their valuable expertise.
The workshop brought together young General Surgeons, focusing on strengthening foundational knowledge and enhancing technical skills in arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation and management.
Held in Perlis, the northernmost state of Peninsular Malaysia, the session provided a valuable platform for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and capacity building across the region.
From HKL, we are truly happy to support and contribute to the continued development of AVF services in the northern region. We look forward to more opportunities to work together in advancing vascular care for our patients.
