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.
Nurses and allied professionals abstracts session
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Highlight the pivotal role of nurses and allied health professionals in interventional cardiology through a series of abstracts addressing radial haemostasis, TAVI nursing programs, early mobilization, radiation protection, and physiologist-led intracoronary thermodilution assessments.
Complex PCI in a TAVI patient - LIVE case
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
An 84-year-old patient with a history of ischemic stroke in 2017, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and a preserved LV function (63 %) presented with a severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. The coronary angiography revealed a severe and calcified stenosis of the distal left main.

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...
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...

Rotational atherectomy, lithotripsy, or laser for calcified coronary stenosis: the ROLLER COASTR-EPIC22 trial
24 Mar 2025
Due to a lack of randomised evidence, this randomised controlled trial (RCT) aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of IVL and ELCA with RA in treating heavily calcified coronary lesions before drug-eluting stent implantation.
