Complex coronary complications
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session addresses complex coronary complications through a series of challenging cases including dextrocardia with acute STEMI, fragile coronary anatomy risks, left main complications, and stent-related issues. It provides critical insights into recognizing and managing unexpected procedural challenges to improve patient safety.
Abstracts - Part 2
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session compiles recent clinical abstracts addressing diverse topics in interventional cardiology. Highlights include the HYBRID-CTO approach from a prospective case series, the cardiovascular impact of empagliflozin in type 2 diabetes, off-label use of intravascular lithotripsy for resistant in-stent lesions, and experiences with non-hyperaemic pressure ratios...
Challenging STEMI scenarios - Part 2
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session presents complex STEMI cases that highlight the challenges of acute coronary syndrome management, including difficult arterial access, balancing reperfusion with embolization risks, and rare complications such as spontaneous coronary artery dissections. It emphasizes nuanced decision-making in high-stakes clinical scenarios.
Complications in STEMI : dissections and more
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address complications encountered in STEMI interventions such as dissections and coronary perforations. Learn from case presentations highlighting procedural challenges, management of delayed perforations, and balancing procedural perfection with practical outcomes.
