The role of DCB in non-left main true bifurcations
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session offers a detailed exploration of drug-coated balloon (DCB) use in non-left main true bifurcation lesions. Learn to define suitable lesion characteristics for provisional stenting, understand stepwise procedural strategies minimizing implanted material, and appreciate the role of intravascular imaging in assessing bifurcation complexity and optimizing...

A tale of two branches: lessons from complex bifurcation PCI
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Delve into complex bifurcation PCI with detailed case studies illustrating practical approaches to challenging scenarios, including managing stent loss in stented left main bifurcations. Gain valuable lessons from retrograde CTO-PCI and true bifurcation lesions to enhance your procedural strategies.

DCB in challenging scenarios - Part 2
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore the application of drug-coated balloons (DCB) in challenging coronary scenarios with a focus on recurrent calcified stenosis, in-stent restenosis, and left main interventions. This session includes case discussions on plaque phenotype-guided DCB treatment, 'leave nothing behind' strategy, and complex left main PCI using kissing DCBs...

Lost and found: bring the pieces back safely - Part 2
24 May 2019 – From EuroPCR 2019
Consult this lost and found session to discover several compelling clinical cases, such as the snaring of a broken wire in a calcific left anterior descending artery, a coronary obstruction caused by persisting undeflated balloon after shaft fracture, and more!
