Challenging clinical scenarios in STEMI

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2026 clinical cases submissions

Summary

This session explores challenging clinical scenarios in STEMI, including coronary embolisation from aortic valve vegetation, blunt chest trauma-related STEMI, intramural hematoma diagnostics with multimodality imaging, acute stent thrombosis during dengue recovery, and advanced clot removal techniques beyond standard aspiration devices.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Primary PCI in STEMI due to coronary embolisation from aortic valve vegetation: procedural consideration
  • Shot through the heart: a 67 year-old woman with acute chest pain
  • STEMI after blunt chest trauma: when the cathlab reveals the unexpected
  • The rebound paradox: acute stent thrombosis during the recovery phase of dengue hemorrhagic fever
  • Penumbra
  • Removing the clot: what if my standard aspiration device is not enough?
