Mitral valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, valve replacement: procedure challenges
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses procedural challenges in mitral valve interventions, including valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve replacement techniques. It covers lifetime management of patients with atrial fixated transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), approaches to recurrent mitral regurgitation, complex valve-in-valve cases, and hybrid strategies for valve-in-ring implantation, highlighting innovative...
Intracoronary imaging guidance in challenging PCI scenarios
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the critical role of intracoronary imaging, particularly IVUS, in guiding complex percutaneous coronary interventions. It presents techniques such as IVUS-guided puncture of neo-ostia, stent implantation for ostial lesions, and innovative procedural methods like the Heart POTTER technique, underscoring the importance of precise imaging...
Beyond first implant: valve-in-valve, redo and leaflet modification
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores advanced transcatheter aortic valve therapies beyond the first implant, focusing on valve-in-valve, redo procedures, and leaflet modification techniques. Topics include bioprosthetic valve fracture, long-term outcomes from the DURA-ViV registry, simplified workflows for leaflet modification in redo-TAVI, and intravascular ultrasound evaluation of valve expansion...
TAVI complications: the nurses and allied professionals' perspective
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the critical role nurses and allied professionals (NAPs) play during TAVI complications. Through detailed clinical cases, it emphasizes their contributions in managing adverse events and explores the significance of structured debriefing to enhance team performance and patient outcomes.
TAVI procedural complications - Part 6: paravalvular leak, basilica and more
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Delve into complex TAVI procedural complications including paravalvular leak and challenges such as BASILICA technique failures, aortic dissection, valve infolding, and valve dislocation. This session presents real-world cases illustrating troubleshooting strategies and innovative interventions like TAVI-in-TAVI procedures to address these critical scenarios.
New insights in coronary atherosclerosis using intracoronary imaging
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session provides new insights into coronary atherosclerosis through intracoronary imaging studies. It investigates the relationship between Lp(a) levels and high-risk plaques, characteristics of vulnerable plaques and thrombus in ACS, non-culprit lesion events, lipid core burden in STEMI, and the prognostic value of AI-derived lipid-to-cap ratios,...
Intracoronary imaging insights in ACS
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Discover how intracoronary imaging advances understanding and management of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). This session explores high-definition intravascular ultrasound for PCI guidance, novel predictive metrics, and the impact of emerging factors like microplastics on plaque instability, alongside pathophysiological insights into layered plaques and coronary ectasia in...
Intracoronary imaging evaluation of stent implantation
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on intracoronary imaging evaluation of stent implantation, this session presents serial OCT data on plaque characteristics and neoatherosclerosis post-STEMI, the clinical impact of stent malapposition in ACS, long-term apposition dynamics, factors influencing stent expansion in calcified lesions by NIRS-IVUS, and OCT insights into coronary artery...

When transfemoral TAVI is not an option: rethinking alternative access strategies
18 Jun 2026
In this article, Ulrich Schäfer explores the evolving landscape of access strategies in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). While the transfemoral approach remains the gold standard, a significant proportion of patients are not suitable due to peripheral vascular disease or anatomical constraints.
Drawing on clinical evidence and...
