Summary

This session explores various complex PCI cases, providing insights and solutions for navigating challenging coronary anatomies. The discussions cover techniques for crossing difficult paths, the role of PCI as a backup for CABG, and the use of specialized tools like balloons and rotablation when standard approaches are uncrossable. The session also features a case of complex PCI in an extremely tortuous coronary vessel using a rare technique. Throughout, the emphasis is on interactive discussions and audience engagement to share best practices for managing complex coronary interventions.
