How to snare a TAVI when crossing is too complex
30 Jan 2025
Crossing the aortic valve can pose significant challenges, particularly in cases involving a horizontal aorta, bulky asymmetric calcifications, or prior prosthesis implantation in valve-in-valve procedures. While some TAVI devices feature deflectable delivery systems to enhance coaxiality, current self-expanding valves lack this capability. When standard techniques like...

How to choose a snare and how to create a snare in complex PCI scenarios
19 Dec 2023
Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures are dramatically increasing in daily practice. Calcified coronary artery lesions and hostile cardiac anatomy may increase the risk of device dislodgment and/or malposition. In such situations, the use of a snare catheter is pivotal to retrieve and/or reposition the device.

How to choose a snare and create a snare to enhance device trackability in structural interventions
19 Dec 2023
Transcatheter structural procedures are dramatically increasing in daily practice. Approaching hostile cardiac anatomy may increase the risk of device dislodgment and/or malposition. In such situations, the use of a snare catheter is pivotal to enhance device trackability.

Look at this case of a 73-year-old man, heavy smoker, with hypertension, type 2 DM, and hyperlipidemia, who recently suffered class III effort-related angina and non-ST elevation MI, who presented with a totally occluded RCA, ulcerated LM, occluded LAD, and stenotic LCx, and study LIVE a complex PCI...
The ability to transform coronary artery disease treatment: innovative nanotechnology-based sirolimus DES and DCB platforms
18 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Alexandre Abizaid, Marco Valgimigli, Fazila Malik, Luca Testa, Patrick W. Serruys, Damiano Regazzoli, Kumar Prathap, and Sandeep Basavarajaiah take turns in this session to discuss two innovative technologies: a stent platform with nanotechnology and a novel drug-coated balloon (DCB). These novel technologies both have unique features...
Sirolimus coated balloon and coronary artery disease: expanding the treatment indications
17 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Through a case presentation, as well as upcoming studies and rationale for the Food and Drug Administration, the aim of this EuroPCR 2022 session is to help you answer the following questions: how can the use of a sirolimus-coated DCB be expanded in new and challenging treatment indications? Why is...
