Management of bifurcations with complex anatomy - Part 1
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session addresses the management of bifurcations with complex anatomy through a series of challenging case studies. It features a traumatic coronary artery dissection, anomalous right coronary artery PCI, CTO interventions complicated by proximal dissection, double CTO PCI for complete revascularization, and a challenging calcified left...

Coronary complications: stent loss
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Examine coronary stent loss complications and retrieval techniques in this session. Review innovative approaches such as retrieval of dislodged stents from unusual locations like the renal artery, and discussions on navigating stent-related struggles, including the mechanical journey and consequences of stent loss during PCI.

Complex multivessel disease - LIVE Case
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
An 89-year-old male patient presented with stable angina, preserved LV function and some risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes. CT scan and angiography revealed occlusion of proximal RCA and bifurcation lesions on LAD and circumflex (medina 1,1,1). Operators treated the bifurcation lesions with provisional stenting.
Regarding...

Percutaneous aspiration of vegetation to relieve obstruction in surgically repaired mitral valve
16 Jan 2025
This image highlights the challenges of managing infective endocarditis (IE) and explores the potential role of transcatheter extraction devices in addressing unmet needs for patients who cannot undergo surgery.

Complications and challenging cases #2
19 Dec 2024 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2024
Dive into this session to explore a collection of challenging cases and complications encountered in interventional cardiology. From a ruptured balloon inside a coronary artery to a percutaneous ventricular septal rupture closure post myocardial infarction, uncover the strategies and techniques used to manage these complex situations....

TAVI in complex situation - LIVE case
18 Dec 2024 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2024
Discover a LIVE case followed by a recorded case exploring complex transcatheter aortic valve interventions:
- An 85-year-old woman with a history of RCA PCI, COPD, CKD stage 3, and LBBB on ECG presented with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis and preserved LV function (67%). With an aortic...

Optimisation of immediate and long-term outcomes using a novel self-expanding valve
18 Dec 2024 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2024
Explore the features and benefits of the ACURATE neo2, a novel self-expanding valve, through clinical cases and recorded procedures. Gain insights into step-by-step implantation techniques, the latest evidence in TAVI, and outcomes from immediate to long-term, focusing on lifetime patient management.

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...

Management of PCI complications - Part 1
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session comprises a series of selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions, focusing on the management of various PCI complications. Participants will explore cases involving coronary physiology challenges, iatrogenic compressive coronary intramural hematoma, misbehaving stents, catheter-induced dissections, and device malfunctions, along with the corresponding bailout techniques...

TAVI with a new generation of valve and difficult arterial access - LIVE case
07 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023
An 84-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes, anaemia (Hgb: 9 g/dl), morbid obesity and limited mobility, and mild LV function impairment (50%), presented an acute heart failure on severe aortic valve stenosis.
The operators decided to implant an Evolut FX by femoral access with secondary access in...

Severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation
15 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022
This GulfPCR-GIM 2022 session aims to illustrate the role of mitral TEER in patients with significant MR and cardiogenic shock, to demonstrate the importance of early detection, but also to show that earlier referral and treatment of patients with significant TR is essential to prevent patients...

The why and how of performing a successful TAVI case
14 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022
In this GulfPCR-GIM 2022 session, observe a 72-year-old male patient with NYHA class II exertional dyspnoea, CAD status after revascularisation, type II DM, CKD IIIB, recently admitted for decompensated HF and type II NSTEMI, who was referred to the clinic for aortic valve replacement.
