Engage with a challenging session focused on complex calcified lesion interventions. Topics include innovative triple burr techniques, OCT insights into resistant lesions, volume reduction strategies, eccentric calcium management, and IVUS-guided left main calcified lesion treatment, highlighting practical approaches to difficult cases.

This session offers a detailed exploration of drug-coated balloon (DCB) use in non-left main true bifurcation lesions. Learn to define suitable lesion characteristics for provisional stenting, understand stepwise procedural strategies minimizing implanted material, and appreciate the role of intravascular imaging in assessing bifurcation complexity and optimizing...

This session addresses advanced leaflet modification techniques to prevent coronary obstruction during TAVI. Learn from detailed cases involving valve-in-valve interventions, treatment of failed stentless valves, homograft management, and dedicated devices for leaflet modification prior to valve-in-valve and valve-in-valve-in-valve procedures.

This session addresses the complexities and innovative approaches to managing high coronary risk during TAVI procedures. It features advanced techniques such as the double chimney-stent method, valve-in-valve strategies to prevent coronary obstruction, and challenging cases involving TAVI-in-TAVI. These insights provide practical guidance for interventionalists navigating high-risk...

The present clinical case highlights some anatomical, functional, and devices-related features which may be used as red flag in the LAAO procedure planning due to prevent PA perforation, a rare but serious complication.

Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) has reshaped the prognosis for heart failure patients with secondary mitral regurgitation, but recurrence remains a real challenge when surgical options are off the table.

This case highlights an innovative use of an atrial flow regulator (AFR) to manage elevated left atrial...

Daniele Giacoppo reports the main results of the RENOVATE-COMPLEX-PCI trial presented by Joo-Yong Hahn, from the Heart Vascular Stroke Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, South Korea, in a Late-Breaking Trial session at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 2023 / World...

Paris, France, 20-23 May 2025. The EuroPCR Course Directors have selected 3 major late-breaking trials that will be presented for the first time during the 2025 edition of EuroPCR. These trials were selected because of their design, results, and potential to impact practice, among them is the...

Claudio Laudani and Daniele Giacoppo report the main results of the ILUMIEN IV trial presented by Ziad Ali, from the St. Francis Hospital, Roslyn, and Clinical Trials Center, Cardiovascular Research Foundation, New York, in a Hot Line session at the European Society of Cardiology congress 2023...
