Complex PCI in multivessel disease
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session features selected clinical case submissions focused on complex PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) in patients with multivessel disease. Participants will learn about various challenging cases, including navigating heart failure, three-vessel disease with functional mitral regurgitation, complete revascularization assisted by Impella, and end-stage refractory angina. The...
Intracoronary imaging: PCI guidance
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session explores the use of various intracoronary imaging techniques to guide complex PCI procedures. It covers cases demonstrating the application of IVUS, OCT, and other imaging modalities in simplifying bifurcation PCI, managing restenotic DES ISR, assessing post-transplant vasculopathy, and optimizing PCI planning and precision. The...
CTO PCI: what a surprise!
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions, explores various challenging and unexpected scenarios encountered during CTO PCI procedures. It includes case presentations and discussions on guide wire entrapment and removal, subintimal wiring, revitalizing hope in a low ejection fraction patient, physiologic and hemodynamic considerations...
Double trouble: uncrossable calcified lesion complicated with iatrogenic ostial dissection
11 Apr 2024
How should this 74-year-old woman with HTN, DM, LVEF 45 %, inferior hypokinesia, and no valvular disorders be managed after presenting with a subacute inferior STEMI of less than 24 hours? Before uncovering the authors' approach, provide your analysis!

Cracking new horizons across all calcium morphologies
07 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023
Watch this session to learn all about the intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) mechanism for treating calcified lesions. Discover practical advice and techniques for implementing IVL in challenging calcified lesions and the safe utilization of IVL in left main bifurcations.
OCT-guided PCI for a patient with calcified lesion
07 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023
Consult this session to gain insights into the significance of actionable intracoronary imaging in the patient treatment journey and acquire knowledge on adopting procedural strategies. Learn about the effective utilisation of orbital atherectomy for plaque modification and the impact of DES platforms in the management of...
Severe symptomatic aortic stenosis in a "no access for TAVI" patient and an "unexpected" toll for balloon valvotomy
18 Oct 2023
An 88-year-old lady was admitted with resistant pulmonary oedema, a massively calcified aortic valve, renal failure and no transfemoral access option. How would you treat this patient?

Calcified bifurcation lesion - LIVE case
22 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
A 59-year-old female patient with type 2 DM, dyslipidaemia, hypothyroidism and impaired LV function (39%) presented with multivessel disease. RCA PCI was performed 3 days ago.
The prox and mid LAD showed a severe calcified lesion including the diagonal. The lesion was prepared using a 1.25 Rotaglide™ ('single-person'...
Revolutionising coronary calcium treatment: unleashing the potential of intravascular lithotripsy
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Over the last five years, we have learned that there is a new tool for treating calcium, the greatest enemy of interventional cardiology, which can take various forms: intravascular lithotripsy. In this session, look at how to master this technique in different scenarios, from eccentric calcified...
