Insights into emerging prognostic predictors for patients with coronary artery disease
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Gain insights into emerging prognostic predictors for coronary artery disease patients, including endothelial shear stress as a cardiovascular risk marker, impacts of intravascular imaging stratified by disease pattern, correlations between diastolic blood pressure and SYNTAX score, and long-term wall shear stress risk prediction from the FAME...
Best companion's case for complications for stable coronary artery disease PCI: episode 2
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Examine complex complication cases during stable coronary artery disease PCI with detailed analyses of iatrogenic coronary dissection, procedural challenges, IVUS-guided resolution, and innovative catheter techniques that highlight precision and adaptability in interventional cardiology.
Best companion's case on complications for stable coronary artery disease PCI: episode 1
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session focuses on managing complications during PCI for stable coronary artery disease through real-world case presentations.

How to manage coronary artery disease in TAVI candidates?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Martine Gilard, Antonio Mangieri, and Marco Barbanti explore the strategy for handling coronary artery disease in patients undergoing TAVI. Is coronary angiography always required beforehand? Should PCI be performed in all cases—and if so, when? This exchange offers key insights to help guide your decisions on...

Complex PCI for severely calcified, uncrossable RCA lesion
07 Apr 2025
A 72-year-old male patient with stable coronary artery disease was admitted for recurrence of angina (CCS II/III). Coronary angiography revealed significant stenosis in the mid-portion of RCA. Ad hoc PCI of RCA was unsuccessful due to an uncrossable lesion...
