Best companion's case on intravascular lithotripsy
23 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Join this session focusing on intravascular lithotripsy in challenging cases, emphasizing device and drug synergy, IVUS guidance, and strategies to avoid exacerbating complications. Clinical cases demonstrate management of tough calcified lesions with novel approaches.
PCI for complex left main disease - LIVE Case
23 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
An 82-year-old male patient with a history of STEMI and diagonal PCI (2004) presented with stable angina (CCS 2). CT imaging revealed 2 severe LAD stenoses (at the ostium and mid part), and a severe bifurcation stenosis at the Cx/OM1 confirmed by angiography. A staged PCI...
When stent failure meets calcified lesions
23 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address the challenges of stent failure in the context of calcified coronary lesions. This session features complex PCI cases involving intrastent rotational atherectomy, management of underexpanded stents, in-stent restenosis, and innovative off-label use of shock wave lithotripsy to tackle tough calcifications.
Vulnerable plaque PCI after PREVENT
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This interview with Michael Haude and Thomas Cuisset explores findings from the PREVENT trial, which included over 1,600 patients with vulnerable, physiologically non-significant plaques identified by IVUS.
Patients were randomised to optimal medical therapy (OMT) alone or OMT plus preventive PCI. While the composite endpoint favoured the PCI...
If I can’t stent it, should I care? Unmasking hidden atherosclerosis through novel imaging techniques
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Unveil the potential of novel imaging techniques in identifying hidden atherosclerosis and silent inflammation. This session discusses the role of perivascular adipose tissue in plaque development, highlights advances in early inflammation detection, and explores clinical management of patients with athero-inflammation beyond traditional stenting options.
