CTO (Chronic total occlusion)

The use of ultra-low contrast in complex CTO

14 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022

Thanks to the recorded complex CTO case shared in this session, learn how to perform ultra-low contrast PCI, learn what skills are required and tools available to perform ultra-low contrast coronary interventions in CTO, and become aware of the importance of relying on less contrast injections...

Challenging CTO Cases - Session 1

14 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022

In this GulfPCR-GIM 2022 session, learn about a complex challenging case of left main bifurcation disease and ostial left anterior descending CTO, as well as a rotational atherectomy assisted-PCI for an old calcified CTO, and more!

Challenging CTO cases - Session 2

14 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022

This GulfPCR-GIM 2022 session compiles 5 challenging CTO cases and explains how to handle them. Study for example a flush ostial RCA-CTO, PWS in a CTO feeding vessel, rotablation and intravascular lithotripsy in three-vessel disease with IVUS, or rotaburr incarceration.

Bifurcation lesion

14 Dec 2022 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2022

Among the 3 bifurcation lesion cases presented in this GulfPCR-GIM 2022 session, find out how to deliver a trapped guidewire, how to manage a live angioplasty that turned out to be a nightmare, and how to deal with a multivessel intervention with left main bifurcation and...

Treatment of calcified lesions

07 Oct 2022 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2022

Consider a 66-year-old man, hypertensive and diabetic for 10 years, with history of recurrent substernal chest pain and exertional dyspnea, who presented with easy fatigability and shortness of breath, or a 72-year-old man on dialysis who presented with STEMI and severe calcified stenosis of LAD/DI bifurcation,...

CTO-PCI

07 Oct 2022 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2022

Consider a 53-year-old man with a strong family history of MI, a history of exertion angina with cycling and dyslipidemia, or a 76-year-old male patient with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, previous CABG (2017), cholecystectomy (2018), left carotid endarterectomy (2018), left leg intervention (2018), and mild aortic...
