The index valve matters: optimal index TAVI for a lifetime of possibilities
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Discover how thoughtful index valve selection and implantation techniques can shape the long-term management of patients undergoing TAVI. This PCR London Valves 2025 session highlights treatment considerations for low- and intermediate-risk patients, explores how valve choice affects the feasibility of future interventions, and examines strategies to...
Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement - LIVE Case
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Live case: An 86-year-old male, with a history of PPM, permanent AF, CKD stage 3, and moderately impaired LV function (50–55%), presented with symptomatic torrential mixed TR (tricuspid annular dilatation and pacing lead on the septal leaflet). An Evoque valve was implanted under fluoroscopy and TEE...
TAV in TAVI with coronary protection - LIVE Case
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Watch a LIVE case followed by a recorded case, regarding a 78-year-old female, with a previous TAVI in 2014 (Sapien 3 26) and sarcoidosis, who presented with symptomatic TAVI stenosis. There was a mis-commissural alignment, with the neoskirt plane above the coronary plane. Under general anesthesia,...
TAVI in challenging scenarios
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session explores complex and emergent scenarios in TAVI, featuring cases such as emergent transfemoral TAVI in failing homograft roots complicated by extensive aortic dissection, the use of BASILICA in high-risk left main occlusion terrain, and the aorto-mitral challenges during TAVR. It also covers innovative coronary...
Redo TAVI with pre and post dilatation - LIVE Case
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Watch this live case followed by a live in a box case, regarding a 93-year-old woman with hypertension, chronic bronchitis, and a history of TAVI with a Sapien 3 23 mm (2016) who presented with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis and mildly reduced LV function (50%). An...
Tips for challenging TAVI scenarios
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore expert tips for navigating challenging TAVI scenarios including cases with stent entrapment, extremely large annuli, and rare anatomical conditions like Klippel Feil syndrome. Understand approaches for intraannular valve prosthesis implantation in complex coronary anatomy.
Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement in the real world: current data and outcomes
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore current real-world data and outcomes of transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR). This session reviews UK single-centre experiences, registry data, long-term right ventricular remodeling effects, safety in pacemaker patients, and AI-based CT screening for patient selection.
Pioneering innovation in the treatment of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This interventional session explores therapeutic strategies for mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, focusing on the clinical decision-making process between repair and replacement. Through two clinical cases, a 78-year-old male patient with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation and an 88-year-old female patient with atrial functional mitral regurgitation, experts review available...
TAVI in bicuspid aortic valve disease - LIVE Case
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
A 79-year-old male patient with atrial fibrillation and RBBB on ECG presented with symptomatic severe bicuspid aortic stenosis. LV function was preserved, and coronary artery disease was noted in LAD and first diagonal. A 26 mm Sapien Ultra Resilia valve was implanted via dual femoral access,...
