Gleneagles Hospital Chennai launched the two-day Gleneagles Liver and Transplant Summit (GLTS) 2025 at Chennai.
Held under the theme “Advancing Science, Enhancing Lives,” the summit serves as a dynamic platform for collaboration among clinicians, surgeons, researchers, and transplant specialists from India and abroad. The summit was inaugurated by Dr Nageswar Rao K, Cluster CEO – Chennai & Hyderabad, alongside Dr Joy Varghese, Director of Hepatology & Transplant Hepatology at Gleneagles Hospital Chennai.
GLTS 2025 explores the latest innovations in liver transplantation, with dedicated sessions on paediatric transplants, ABO-incompatible procedures, and complex dual lobe and swap transplants. The scientific agenda extends into a multidisciplinary space, encompassing developments in hepatology, anaesthesiology, radiology, and pathology. With participation from over 40 national and international faculty members and an expected audience of more than 500 medical professionals, the summit promises to foster deep knowledge exchange and meaningful partnerships.
“Gleneagles Hospital Chennai has successfully performed over 2,500 liver transplants and established itself as a centre of excellence in multi-organ transplantation,” said Dr Nageswar Rao. “GLTS 2025 strengthens our commitment to advancing clinical knowledge, improving outcomes, and raising standards of care through collaboration.”
Dr Joy Varghese added, “This summit highlights India’s growing leadership in liver transplantation. More than just a scientific gathering, it exemplifies the spirit of teamwork, multidisciplinary synergy, and continuous learning that directly benefits patients.”
Key themes of GLTS 2025 include a strong focus on paediatric liver transplantation, ABO-incompatible cases, and technically complex procedures such as dual lobe transplants. The programme also features discussions on transplant-related anaesthesia, radiology, hepatology, and pathology, offering a comprehensive overview of current practice and future directions. Additionally, the summit showcases some of India’s leading innovations in liver disease management, while providing valuable networking opportunities for over 500 delegates engaging with more than 40 national and international experts.
GLTS 2025 is more than an academic event — it is a powerful reminder of what can be achieved through collaboration, innovation, and shared purpose in the field of liver care.
