The impact of calcified and resistant lesions in clinical outcome of PCI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Delve into the clinical implications of calcified and resistant coronary lesions on percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) outcomes. This session presents key registry data and study results on intravascular lithotripsy and plaque modification techniques, highlighting their impact on patient prognosis and stent performance.
STEMI - What if a culprit lesion is not identifiable?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address challenging STEMI cases where culprit lesions are not immediately identifiable. This session emphasizes the utility of intravascular imaging in guiding decision-making and optimizing percutaneous interventions through illustrative cases involving left main stenosis, ambiguous culprit lesions, and etiological dilemmas in coronary occlusion.
Complex and high-risk PCI management
19 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
This session discusses the comparison between high-risk PCI and repeat CABG, exploring current practices of high-risk PCI and strategies for optimizing outcomes in different scenarios, and examining the utilization of mechanical circulation support devices.
Repeat NSTEMI late after self-expanding TAVR
17 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Discover the case of a 79 year-old man presenting to the ER with NSTEMI and chest pain, with an history of NSTEMI with PCI and TAVR (CTO of the dominated RCA and intermediate stenosis of the proximal LAD). Angiography reveals a tight stenosis of proximal and...
