How imaging can help us in recognising the problem and identifying the solution?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session delves into the pivotal role of imaging in the cath lab for identifying rare and complex coronary artery conditions. Explore cases ranging from honeycomb coronary artery to acute coronary syndrome guided by intravascular imaging, and learn how reflected light and calcium changes help diagnose...
Intracoronary imaging-guided MINOCA management
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session addresses the nuanced role of intracoronary imaging in guiding the management of MINOCA patients. Explore interventions including interventional endarterectomy, cutting-balloon PCI for spontaneous coronary artery dissection, strategies for spastic vulnerable plaques, and unusual acute STEMI presentations.
Primary PCI outside of the box: unusual STEMI cases
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session presents unusual STEMI cases managed with primary PCI outside conventional protocols. Cases include heavily calcified lesions, STEMIs with non-flow-limiting stenoses, simultaneous occlusions with cardiac arrest, and other complex presentations, highlighting diverse interventional strategies.
Nurses and allied professionals clinical cases session
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Highlighting the critical role of nurses and allied professionals, this session presents clinical case discussions on managing brachial dissection, rare ACS diagnosis, coronary perforation, and rotablator complications. Emphasis is placed on teamwork and training illustrated by a case of acute transcatheter aortic valve migration to optimize...
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.
Adressing complex anatomy in STEMI
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address anatomical complexities in STEMI management through cases involving bilateral compromised coronary ostia due to aortic dissection, rare challenging STEMI presentations, coronary steal phenomena, diffuse atherosclerotic dissections in young patients, and aneurysmal coronary artery angioplasty in IgG4-related disease.
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. This session covers innovative therapies including the OPTI-STEMI trial strategies, mechanical thrombectomy, pharmacological interventions with Cangrelor, and super saturated oxygen therapy targeting coronary microcirculation preservation.
