Summary

This session focuses on the use of intracoronary imaging techniques, such as OCT and IVUS, in the management of complex left main coronary artery disease. It presents various case studies, including successful complex PCI of left main trifurcation, left main compression due to pulmonary hypertension, and left main stenting complications. The discussions highlight the role of imaging in decision-making, troubleshooting, and optimizing outcomes in these challenging scenarios.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Successful complex PCI of left main trifurcation (0011) with OCT support
  • A kiss crushed the party
  • Solving the fallacy between physiology and imaging
  • IVUS-guided decision making in left main coronary artery compression due to pulmonary hypertension
  • Left main trunk: when less is more
  • Left main stenting: an unwanted crush
