Life threatening complications in CTO PCI

Facilitators: F.J. Neumann, E. Smith

Summary

Focus on life-threatening complications during CTO PCI with topics including rotational atherectomy challenges, interventricular septal puncture, surgical retrieval of fractured guidewires, and image-guided strategies for managing multivessel CTO complications, enhancing procedural safety.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Navigating challenges in rotational artherectomy: Thinking beyond established management algorithms
  • Therapeutic puncture of interventricular septum after complicated retrograde recanalisation of chronic occluded right coronary artery, a drop in t...
  • Challenging management of CTO with torpid evolution
  • Surgical retrieval of the guidewire that spontaneously fractured in right coronary artery and penetrated the vessel
  • Multivessel mayhem: image-guided strategies for complications in left anterior descending artery CTO
