Behind standard practice: a place for DCB

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2026 clinical cases submissions

Moderators: S. Dani, M. Krucoff, V. Kumar

Speakers: T. C. Buliga, G. Adnan, K. Miyahara, G. Pimentel Morales, E. Kalendar, E. Elmahi

Summary

This session examines the role of drug-coated balloons (DCB) beyond standard practice in coronary revascularization. It includes discussions on revascularization strategies in young patients, rescue of early distal LIMA–LAD anastomosis, treatment of in-stent restenosis, stepwise complex CTO bifurcation revascularization using kissing DCBs, and management of calcified ostial lesions with DCB angioplasty emphasizing minimal metal implantation.

Presentations available when logged in:

Revascularisation in the young. Treating today without compromising tomorrow
Rescuing the early distal LIMA–LAD anastomosis: HDR followed by DEB
NSTEMI three months after DCB treatment for in-stent re-restenosis
DCB angioplasty for in-stent restenosis in a unique-vessel disease
Stepwise revascularisation of a complex CTO bifurcation with a kissing DEB strategy
When less metal is more: DCB angioplasty for a calcified ostial left circumflex lesion
