How to solve tricky coronary complications
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
From balloon rupture during double-kissing crush stenting to a successful bailout for delayed coronary obstruction post-TAVI, and an unforeseen complication after chimney stenting in a high-risk patient, the session covers it all. Learn about the nuclear mushroom phenomenon during PCI in a calcified LAD, strategies for...
Stent loss and coronary perforation: how to deal with
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session explores the management of challenging complications during percutaneous coronary interventions, such as stent loss and coronary perforation. The presenters share case studies that demonstrate various techniques and strategies used to address these complications, including the use of CTO wires for distal wire perforation, managing...
Mastering the future of PCI with drug-coated balloons
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Join this session dedicated to drug-coated balloons (DCB) to delve into the evolution of angioplasty with DCBs in the U.S. Learn about the established standard of care, balancing efficacy and safety in treating in-stent restenosis (ISR).
