DCB as a key player in the management of complex coronary lesions
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the pivotal role of drug-coated balloons (DCB) in managing complex coronary lesions. Experienced operators share their approaches to applying DCB in challenging clinical and anatomical settings, optimized by intravascular imaging guidance. The discussion includes insights from the LatamBif Registry and other series on...
Unconventional situations during cardiovascular interventions
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses unconventional and challenging scenarios encountered during cardiovascular interventions, focusing on managing complications effectively in the cathlab. Through detailed case presentations from Argentina, Chile, and Colombia, it explores innovative approaches to acute aortic valve regurgitation, TAVI complications in bicuspid anatomy, and diagnostic dilemmas in...
How to optimise outcome in valve-in-valve and valve-in-mitral annular calcification patients
12 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This session explores how to optimise outcomes in valve-in-valve and valve-in-mitral annular calcification procedures. Clinical evidence is combined with real case demonstrations, highlighting step-by-step approaches, practical strategies, and techniques to reduce risks such as left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in high-risk patients.
Management of residual and recurrent mitral regurgitation after TEER
12 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
Delve into the complexities of managing residual and recurrent mitral regurgitation following Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER). This session discusses challenges such as late mitral regurgitation, strategies for handling single leaflet detachment, and anatomical considerations that may preclude TEER feasibility.
Innovation session: new techniques and devices in Latin America
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
Join this innovation-focused session highlighting new structural heart devices and techniques emerging from Latin America. Review real-world cases including mechanical valve re-intervention, TMVR, novel mitral TEER devices, and first clinical experiences with a new self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve in small annuli. Gain valuable procedural and clinical...
TEER for challenging anatomy: from myth to reality
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore advanced TEER techniques for challenging anatomies. This session covers indications, periprocedural steps, state-of-the-art procedural methods, and management of failed surgical tricuspid annuloplasty, with case discussions highlighting practical learnings for complex mitral and tricuspid interventions.
