Management of a patient with severe CAD and aortic valve stenosis
20 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Watch the LIVE case of an 87-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension and dyslipidemia but no other significant cardiovascular risk factors and remarkably good health for an elderly man, but with angina for some months and dyspnea, and discuss the management of TAVI candidates with...
Left main bifurcation stenting
19 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Let's study, LIVE from Massy, France, the case of a 76-year-old man, hypertensive, dyslipidemic, who presented apical necrosis without ischemia in 2017, asymptomatic, referred for myocardial scintigraphy, and find out more about performing LM PCI, using imaging to guide the procedure.

Right ventricular-pulmonary arterial coupling and afterload reserve in patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve repair
10 Feb 2022
The authors hypothesized that disordered right ventricular to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling may denote RV decompensation in patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (TTVR) that may correlate with poor clinical outcomes.
