Tailored techniques for left main bfurcation interventions
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session explores various techniques and strategies for managing complex left main bifurcation lesions. It features case studies that demonstrate the use of hybrid PCI to reduce metal burden, the importance of IVUS guidance, the challenges of large dimension left main PCI, and the role of...
Challenges and complications in STEMI: resuscitated cardiac arrest, left ventricular free wall rupture & more!
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session presents a series of challenging and complex STEMI cases, highlighting the various complications that can arise during primary PCI. Attendees will witness real-life scenarios, including resuscitated cardiac arrest, the use of rotational atherectomy, left ventricular free wall rupture, and more. Through interactive discussions, the...
Innovative approaches to rare PCI complications in NSTEMI
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session features selected clinical case submissions that explore complex PCI scenarios in NSTEMI patients. Participants will learn about rare complications following coronary angioplasty, strategies for identifying the correct culprit lesion, techniques for managing pericardial effusion, and other challenging situations encountered during complex PCI in NSTEMI....
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...
Acute coronary syndrome caused by coronary aneurysms
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session will explore various cases of acute coronary syndromes caused by coronary artery aneurysms. Participants will learn about the diagnosis, management, and treatment strategies for these rare and complex cases, including the use of imaging and interventional techniques to address the underlying pathology.
Multivessel disease PCI guided by physiology and IVUS - LIVE case
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
A 78-year-old woman with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity, presented with angina CCS2 and preserved LV function. The coronary angiogram showed stenosis in the RCA (proximal and mid), CX, and calcified proximal and mid LAD involving D1 and D2.
The operators performed PCI on the RCA (1 stent)...
Comparative insights into QFR, FFR, and angiography
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Abstract submissions, focuses on various aspects of assessing and managing multivessel coronary artery disease. It includes presentations and discussions on the use of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) for assessing non-culprit lesions in acute myocardial infarction, functional assessment of surgical revascularization,...
Left main bifurcation techniques: ultra-low contrast PCI, modified reverse wire technique & more!
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session showcases various techniques for managing complex left main bifurcation lesions, including the use of ultra-low contrast PCI in calcific disease, a modified reverse wire technique for severely angulated branches, and navigating subtotal occlusions, tortuosity, and trifurcations in post-TAVI PCI. The discussions provide practical insights...
Drug-coated balloons in de novo coronary artery disease
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, in collaboration with various cardiology societies, focuses on the use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) in the treatment of de novo coronary artery disease. It covers the optimal technique for PCI with DCBs, the indications and use of DCBs in small vessels, bifurcations, and multivessel...
Acute coronary syndromes
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, in collaboration with various cardiology societies, focuses on the management of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). It presents three case studies, covering the management of culprit lesions in ACS, tips and tricks in difficult situations, and the management of multivessel disease. The discussions aim to...
