Patients with degenerated aortic bioprothesis - Every case is different
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Delve into the nuanced management of patients with degenerated aortic bioprostheses, emphasizing that no two cases are alike. This session provides expert insights into selecting optimal valve-in-valve TAVI approaches tailored to individual anatomy and clinical context. Learn practical strategies to overcome complex challenges such as coronary...
Advancing the standard of care in PCI with Bioadaptor: from simple to complex
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session provides an in-depth overview of Bioadapter technology and its potential to overcome the limitations of current drug-eluting stents (DES) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Speakers present data from recent trials, including the Bioadapter RCT and the Infinity Sweetheart study, demonstrating a reduction in target lesion...
Complex PCI for severely calcified, uncrossable RCA lesion
07 Apr 2025
A 72-year-old male patient with stable coronary artery disease was admitted for recurrence of angina (CCS II/III). Coronary angiography revealed significant stenosis in the mid-portion of RCA. Ad hoc PCI of RCA was unsuccessful due to an uncrossable lesion...

Restoring vessel physiology drives outcomes - The Bioadaptor experience
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Join this session to delve into the unmet needs concerning drug-eluting stents (DES), including poor long-term clinical outcomes, with up to a 50% MACE rate at 10 years, and a non-plateauing 2-3% annual event rate. Explore how DynamX Bioadaptor technology addresses these challenges by maintaining the...
Calcified coronary lesions: procedural techniques
15 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions, focuses on procedural techniques for the management of calcified coronary lesions. It will feature various complex cases, including in-stent shave and debulk, damned coronary nodules, rotatripsy burring before the shock, protected high-risk PCI of a heavily calcified...
It's not all about the anatomy - When physiology matters!
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, in collaboration with various international cardiology societies, emphasizes the importance of physiology-guided interventions in complex multivessel disease. It presents three cases demonstrating the use of CTCA-derived cFFR, pressure wire assessment in bifurcation PCI, and angio-based FFR to guide treatment decisions. The discussions highlight how...
