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...

PCI: from basics to robots
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session covers a wide range of topics in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), from fundamental aspects to the latest advancements. It includes discussions on non-fasting versus fasting before interventional procedures, radial artery puncture hemostasis, ultrasound-guided transfemoral puncture in complex PCI, the use of uninterrupted direct-acting oral...

14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
In this session, discover the effectiveness and safety of robotic PCI for both simple and complex lesions requiring additional devices like IVL, IVUS, laser, and FFR. Learn about the numerous benefits of robotics for patients and cathlab teams, including enhanced precision in wire navigation and stent...

EuroPCR 2023 Hotlines/Late-Breaking Trials: focus on wire and image-based physiology
18 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Find out more about a series of studies focusing on wire and image based physiology: Coronary microvascular function and CT coronary angiography trial aiming to assess whether endotype diagnosis informed by coronay function testing vs angiography improved angina; a 5-year follow up of the DEFINE FLAIR;...

Calcified distal left main stenosis - LIVE case
18 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Watch the case of a 62-year-old non-diabetic male patient with history of stroke and peripheral artery disease, normal ECG and left ventricular function, referred for CT scan and angiography. He presented with calcified distal LM stenosis and calcified proximal LAD stenosis.
Provisional left main stenting was performed,...
