This session explores complex and complicated cases of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) beyond routine practice. It addresses challenges such as device failures, late complications, acute left ventricular dysfunction related to afterload changes, stepwise approaches to overcome procedural failures, rescue strategies in cardiogenic shock, and tailored...

This session highlights the evolving role of the pulmonary valve in adult structural interventions. It reviews complex transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) cases, strategies for managing challenging right ventricular outflow tract anatomies, and percutaneous solutions for pulmonary artery stenosis and related complications.

This session presents new techniques and practical tips in chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It covers innovative approaches such as the side-flap technique, simplified antegrade strategies for calcified lesions, and retrograde CTO techniques, providing valuable insights into overcoming challenging occlusions.

This session explores the clinical applications of drug-coated balloons (DCB) across diverse challenging scenarios. It covers management of severely calcified nodules in acute coronary syndrome, healing of intentional dissections in chronic total occlusions using paclitaxel DCB, strategic integration of contemporary technology in complex lesion treatment, and...

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease leading to intervention. It is characterized by progression from leaflet thickening and calcification to significant haemodynamic stenosis which results in disease-specific symptoms and physical limitations as well as poor prognosis and impaired quality of life if...
