Summary
In this EuroPCR 2022 session, follow the discussion around the recorded case of a 67-year-old non-smoking male patient who presented with chest pain on exertion typical of angina for one month, and learn how to optimally treat a severely calcified long lesion, understand how imaging can help in strategizing the PCI procedure in a calcified vessel, find out how to perform bifurcation PCI of left main and LAD/D1 with two-stent technique, and remember the important factors to be taken into consideration when choosing a left main stent.
