Mitral valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, valve-in-mac: the good, the bad and the ugly
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session delves into the complexities of mitral valve interventions, focusing on valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve-in-mitral annular calcification (MAC) procedures. It addresses troubleshooting in high-risk valve-in-MAC cases, urgent transcatheter mitral valve implantation supported by microaxial flow pumps, challenges in delivering balloon expandable valves transeptally, and innovative...
Cardiogenic shock: identifying the cause and tailoring the treatment
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on the critical evaluation and management of cardiogenic shock by identifying its underlying causes and tailoring treatment accordingly. It presents complex cases including free wall rupture bail-out strategies, management dilemmas in inferior STEMI complicated by incomplete ventricular rupture, multifactorial culprit lesions, refractory hypotension...
Bifurcation PCI with complications - Part 2
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the challenges and complications encountered during bifurcation PCI. Topics include managing the hairpin hazard, advanced techniques for coronary guidewire entrapment, dual device failure in complex interventions, strategies for trifurcation lesions, and the implications of tissue entrapment in malapposed stents within the left main...
Complex distal LM PCI challenges (trifurcations and more)
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on the intricacies of complex distal left main PCI, this session covers challenging trifurcation lesions and emergency interventions. It includes IVUS-guided approaches for trifurcation PCI, management of calcified left main trifurcations, and multidisciplinary team rescue strategies for unstable left main bifurcation disease.
Images that speak for themselves
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This visually-driven session presents compelling clinical cases where imaging played a decisive role. Cases include unexpected challenges following transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement, severe hypertension in a young athlete, atypical coronary artery anatomy, critical moments of cardiac arrest, and unique coronary artery findings resembling a spider web.
Imaging to the rescue in LAA closure
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the pivotal role of advanced imaging modalities in left atrial appendage (LAA) closure. Topics include novel risk assessment workflows for air embolism, evaluation protocols using cardiac CT and 3D TEE, reproducibility of anatomical classifications, and long-term follow-up outcomes with various imaging techniques.
Navigating the complexity of high bleeding risk
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on patients with high bleeding risk undergoing PCI, this session presents contemporary evidence on prevalence, procedural strategies with different stent types, antiplatelet therapy considerations including diabetic and sex-specific outcomes, and novel technologies such as sirolimus-coated balloons and machine learning models for restenosis prediction.
Registries and trials in TMVR
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session provides an in-depth review of registries and clinical trials focused on transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). It presents data on annular and ventricular remodeling with the HighLife system, mid- to long-term valve performance, and innovations in transseptal TMVR using novel bioprostheses.

How to choose a snare and how to create a snare in complex PCI scenarios
19 Dec 2023
Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures are dramatically increasing in daily practice. Calcified coronary artery lesions and hostile cardiac anatomy may increase the risk of device dislodgment and/or malposition. In such situations, the use of a snare catheter is pivotal to retrieve and/or reposition the device.

How to choose a snare and create a snare to enhance device trackability in structural interventions
19 Dec 2023
Transcatheter structural procedures are dramatically increasing in daily practice. Approaching hostile cardiac anatomy may increase the risk of device dislodgment and/or malposition. In such situations, the use of a snare catheter is pivotal to enhance device trackability.
