Non left main bifurcation - LIVE case

17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024

A 53-year-old male presented with a late STEMI one month ago. Coronary angiography revealed three-vessel disease: CX occlusion (culprit lesion), RCA bifurcation stenosis, and severe mid LAD-D1 (1-1-1) stenosis. The operators performed RCA PCI during the STEMI hospitalization.
In this live case, they performed the LAD-D1 bifurcation...

Imaging-guided left main PCI - LIVE case

17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024

A 53-year-old male with a history of advanced malignancy (lung adenoma) and mid LAD PCI last year, along with multiple risk factors (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and smoking), presented with angina and a positive stress test and CT. The angiography and CT showed significant left main stenosis...

Complex bifurcation PCI - LIVE case

17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023

Study the case of this 69-year-old male patient with recent PCI on LAD presenting chronic coronary syndrome. Angiography showed calcified stenosis on bifurcation of proximal CX and large obtuse marginal 1, Medina 0-1-1.

The PCI strategy was an OCT-guided TAP technique: 

7F guiding catheter, predilatation with semi-compliant and non-compliant...
