How to efficiently and safely manage calcified left main disease?
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Nicola Ryan and Flavio Ribichini explore the complexities of calcified left main stem disease, emphasizing the critical role of intracoronary imaging in improving patient outcomes. They discuss the practical use of mechanical circulatory support and debate stenting strategies, offering expert insights on when single or dual...
Calcium is not a rocket science
07 May 2025
We present the case of an 83-year-old man admitted with chronic coronary syndrome.
Coronary angiography revealed critical long calcified LAD stenosis. Complex PCI with different plaque modification techniques and intravascular imaging guiding was necessary to reach the success.
