Summary

This session provides an in-depth review of complex STEMI cases from diverse clinical settings, emphasizing optimisation of primary PCI strategies, complication management, and individualised antithrombotic therapy. Real-world cases from Albania, Macedonia, and Slovakia illustrate diagnostic challenges and therapeutic decision-making to improve patient outcomes.
