Devices and strategies in calcified lesions
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Explore advanced devices and techniques for treating calcified coronary lesions in this session. Discussions include the use of Eximer laser coronary atherectomy, novel cutting balloons, outcomes of rotational atherectomy in tortuous vessels, atherectomy combined with drug-coated balloon therapy, and calcium fracture patterns following Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy.
New strategies in STEMI treatments
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Investigate new strategies in STEMI treatment through data from international registries and clinical trials. This session examines the comparative efficacy of sirolimus versus paclitaxel-coated balloons, plaque modification in calcified lesions, novel cardioprotective techniques during primary PCI, and the role of AI-assisted ECG interpretation in STEMI pathways.
Navigating the complexity of high bleeding risk
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on patients with high bleeding risk undergoing PCI, this session presents contemporary evidence on prevalence, procedural strategies with different stent types, antiplatelet therapy considerations including diabetic and sex-specific outcomes, and novel technologies such as sirolimus-coated balloons and machine learning models for restenosis prediction.
Addressing complications in calcified lesions
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session delves into the complexities and management strategies for complications arising in calcified coronary lesions. Topics include advanced techniques such as puncturing the seal, handling lethal complications on calcified vessels, managing rare rotational atherectomy wire fractures, addressing massive stent deformation due to jailed rotawires, innovative...

Beyond the intervention: outcomes of CTO PCI
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Discover long-term outcomes and practical insights into chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI. This session presents real-world registry data, cost-effectiveness analyses, effects of successful revascularisation in reduced ejection fraction and heart failure patients, and specific outcomes in octogenarian populations.
Management of stent-related complications
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session addresses the management of stent-related complications through a series of dramatic clinical cases. Learn methodical approaches to routine and crisis scenarios including primary PCI complications, failure to stent, and unexpected challenges encountered during interventions, highlighting practical bailout techniques and decision-making frameworks.
DES and bioadaptator technologies in contemporary practice
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Delve into contemporary practice with this session on drug-eluting stents (DES) and bioadaptator technologies. Gain insights from international studies on complex PCI outcomes, comparative data from randomized trials, and real-world experiences focusing on high bleeding risk patients and elderly cohorts treated with ultrathin strut and new-generation...
Treatment strategies of calcified lesions
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Abstract submissions, explores various treatment strategies for calcified coronary lesions. It includes presentations and discussions on the invasive evaluation of coronary artery compliance modification after intracoronary lithotripsy, a retrospective comparison of rotational atherectomy in NSTE-ACS and stable angina patients, the...
