Best companions's case on complications in calcified lesions
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Delve into challenging cases involving complications in calcified coronary lesions managed with rotational atherectomy. Topics include unique uses of Rotablation, managing burr entrapment, complex calcium and tortuosity combinations, and addressing perforations resulting from stent optimization and burr retrieval in highly calcified vessels.

Complex PCI in calcific coronary artery disease - LIVE Case
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
A 76-year-old male patient presented with a significant history of coronary artery disease: CABG with LIMA/LAD and RIMA/OM (1996), RCA PCI with BVS (2016), OM PCI (2017), RIMA occlusion and OM retenosis treated with DCB (2022) with preserved LV. He was admitted for pre-operative evaluation prior...

Novelty in no-reflow management in STEMI patients
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Discover novel approaches to manage no-reflow phenomenon in STEMI patients.
