Best structural complications

22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights the management of complex structural complications encountered in high-risk valve interventions. It covers troubleshooting in mitral annular calcification, challenges with the BASILICA technique, creative bailouts for valve embolisation, and considerations in leaflet management during aortic stenosis procedures.

LAA closure and pulmonary embolism hotline

22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Focusing on left atrial appendage (LAA) closure and pulmonary embolism management, this session reviews device-related thrombus, implant healing with novel coatings, and compares mechanical thrombectomy to catheter-directed thrombolysis. It also discusses the prognostic impact of hemodynamic data post-thrombectomy to inform clinical outcomes.
