Optimising outcomes in treating multivessel disease - LIVE case
04 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024
A 75-year-old male with hypertension, dyslipidemia and a lot of co-morbidities presented a positive echo stress test. The coronary angiography showed diffuse calcified disease on LAD, CX, OM1 and RCA. There is significant stenosis on ostial RCA, mid LAD, mid CX and OM1.

Expert strategies for high-risk left main procedures
04 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024
Fighting with calcium is always a struggle
12 Sep 2024
Managing calcified lesions is always a challenge, and while rotablation is the default technique, other methods must sometimes be considered, especially for eruptive calcified nodules, such as Shockwave, OPN balloon, or orbital atherectomy.

Optimal minimal stent area and impact of stent underexpansion in left main up-front 2-stent strategy
10 Jul 2024
The present study aimed to revise the IVUS-derived segmental MSA criteria for optimal stent expansion in patients undergoing an up-front 2-stent strategy using the crush technique for LM bifurcation lesions to predict the 5-year clinical outcomes.

Expect trouble when calcium meets tortuous anatomy
01 Aug 2024
This case illustrates the challenges of managing a previously bypassed patient in an acute setting with LM disease and high calcium burden involving LAD and Cx ostias, and occlusion of the venous graft towards the Cx. The tortuous anatomy is a further hurdle to management and choice...
