Left main complications - Part 3
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session reviews complex complications encountered in left main coronary interventions. It covers causes and management of acute left main occlusion, critical stenosis of coronary buttons, retrieval techniques for ostial stents, and strategies for managing challenging PCI scenarios that may precipitate or resolve catastrophic events.
Left main PCI, what is known and what is new
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines both established knowledge and novel advances in left main PCI. Topics include the use of novel stents and laser atherectomy in calcified lesions, the prognostic impact of cardiac motion during bifurcation PCI, effects of left ventricular dysfunction, and sex-specific survival outcomes, as well...
Left main PCI: predictions of risk and long-term clinical outcome
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on risk prediction and long-term outcomes following left main percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It covers biomarkers like NT-proBNP, hemodynamic predictors, and the impact of comorbidities such as diabetes and chronic kidney disease on patient prognosis over a ten-year follow-up.
Multivessel disease or left main disease
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores revascularisation strategies for patients with multivessel or left main coronary artery disease.
