Influence of pathophysiological patterns of coronary artery disease on immediate percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes
28 May 2024
This study demonstrated, for the first time, that PPG - an index to characterize focal vs. diffuse disease - can predict optimal functional revascularization outcomes (post-PCI FFR ≥ 0.88) more accurately than FFR alone.

Migration of the stent in the left main stem due to poor lesion preparation
23 May 2024
Poor lesion preparation is an important factor contributing to serious complications in PCI of heavily calcified lesions. We present a case of a stent loss in a left main coronary artery followed by its successful retrieval.

Role of PCI in the contemporary management of patients with angina and coronary disease
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session aims to generate awareness about the distinct phenotypes of coronary artery disease (focal, diffuse, serial) that can be identified through contemporary physiological tools, and the implications of these phenotypes on achieving successful functional PCI results. Participants will also discuss the considerations around using PCI...
Management of PCI complications - Part 2
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session focuses on the management of various PCI complications, including iatrogenic dissection after diagnostic coronary angiography, sinus node artery occlusion, a stuck 6F guide in the axillary artery, and the retrieval of a broken balloon. The session features a series of case presentations and discussions,...
