The KDIGO Controversies Conference on Coronary Artery & Valvular Diseases in CKD was the third in a series of conferences related to cardiovascular disease and kidney disease sponsored by KDIGO. The first dealt with arrhythmias in CKD and the second heart failure in CKD. This conference saw key thought leaders from cardiology, nephrology, cardiac surgery and other related disciplines summarize what is known and what is not known in this field. Key areas of controversy were focused upon and research and clinical recommendations will be provided in the conference report so as to move the field forward.

The KDIGO Controversies Conference on Coronary Artery & Valvular Diseases in CKD was led by Mark J. Sarnak MD MS, nephrologist from Tufts Medical Center, USA and Thomas Marwick, MD, cardiologist from Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute, Australia.
