How to avoid and manage complications
28 Feb 2026 – From Euro4C Annual Meeting 2026
Build a comprehensive complication-management toolbox tailored for PCI in heavily calcified vessels. This session covers prevention and management techniques for complications arising from severely calcified lesions, illustrated by practical cases and expert insights into risky lesions and challenging devices.
It is a calcified left main: do it well, do it safely
28 Feb 2026 – From Euro4C Annual Meeting 2026
This session addresses the complexities of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in calcified left main coronary artery disease. It covers comprehensive planning including mechanical circulatory support, intravascular imaging, and bifurcation strategies. Attendees will also learn to anticipate and manage potential complications and apply various tools to ensure...
Navigating complexity: TAVI in challenging anatomies
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Navigate the complexities of TAVI in challenging anatomies. This session reviews anatomical variations such as horizontal aorta, iliofemoral tortuosity, low coronary ostia, bicuspid valves, and annular eccentricity, alongside preprocedural imaging and risk stratification. It further evaluates device selection and procedural adaptations essential for successful TAVI in...
Peripheral expertise to the rescue
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session addresses peripheral vascular expertise in managing access complications and occlusions. Learn about approaches to femoral access challenges during TAVI, endovascular solutions for iatrogenic hepatic artery rupture, and unconventional treatments for superficial femoral artery occlusions caused by covered stents.
TAVI - complications
21 Nov 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Because TAVI is not without risk, learn about bailout endovascular techniques to counter transcatheter aortic valve LV dislocation, analyze the cost of infectious complications caused by TAVR compared with SAVR, and discover how imaging can predict aortic root rupture or conduction abnormalities, among others.
Endovascular aortic repair and case-based discussion of complications during peripheral interventions (Part 2)
20 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
This session, which was originally broadcast during EuroPCR 2021, presents 6 cases of unexpected complications of large vessel access in the context of TAVI procedures and enables our experts to discuss their successful management, using a variety of techniques. It highlights the need for a large...
Endovascular aortic repair and case-based discussion of complications during peripheral interventions (Part 1)
20 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
Watch this session if you want to learn more about Endovascular aortic repair and complications during peripheral interventions. It highlights the need for a large toolbox and the importance of pre-procedural planning, ultrasound-guided puncture, and team-working (vascular/heart teams).
This session was originally presented during EuroPCR 2021.
