DCB as a key player in the management of complex coronary lesions

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights the pivotal role of drug-coated balloons (DCB) in managing complex coronary lesions. Experienced operators share their approaches to applying DCB in challenging clinical and anatomical settings, optimized by intravascular imaging guidance. The discussion includes insights from the LatamBif Registry and other series on...

Redo TAVI

12 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025

This session focuses on the challenges and strategies of redo TAVI, from careful planning to valve selection and tailored procedural approaches. Learn how to manage different valve platforms, optimise outcomes in valve-in-valve scenarios, and prevent complications such as coronary obstruction through real case discussions.
