Acute complications during distal left main PCI - Part 1

Facilitators: S. Alam, H. Alosaimi

Summary

Navigate the challenges of acute complications during distal left main PCI with expert guidance. This session discusses troubleshooting techniques for stuck IVUS catheters, stepwise ostial LAD stenting, OCT applications when crush and kiss techniques fail, management of lost stents in heavily calcified bifurcations, and responses to thrombus storms. Gain valuable strategies to prevent and manage these complex scenarios effectively.
