Best companion's cases on orbital atherectomy
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Dive into advanced cases demonstrating orbital atherectomy techniques for managing challenging calcified coronary lesions. This session includes innovative approaches such as 'sand and knock' calcium modification, orbital atherectomy in complex anatomies, and the use of optical coherence tomography to guide percutaneous treatment of calcified nodules.
PCI for complex calcific coronary artery disease - LIVE Case
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
An 87-year-old female patient, at high bleeding risk and with preserved LV function, presented 2 months ago with an inferior STEMI and multivessel disease. She initially underwent RCA PCI followed by staged LCx PCI. She was now referred for PCI of a long, heavily calcified lesion...
