Summary

This session presents a series of challenging and complex STEMI cases, highlighting the various complications that can arise during primary PCI. Attendees will witness real-life scenarios, including resuscitated cardiac arrest, the use of rotational atherectomy, left ventricular free wall rupture, and more. Through interactive discussions, the session aims to equip interventional cardiologists with the knowledge and strategies to navigate these high-risk situations and optimize patient outcomes.
