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,...
Increasing efficiency in CTO PCI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focused on increasing efficiency in CTO PCI, this session covers diverse technical approaches including overcoming unexpected anatomical barriers, multiple wiring techniques, microchannel selection in bifurcation lesions, managing tortuous right coronary artery CTOs, unconventional strategies for uncrossable CTOs, and adapting perspectives in patients with previous CABG.
Left main PCI-complex procedures
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session covers complex left main coronary artery PCI procedures that challenge standard algorithms. It includes tackling chronic total occlusions of the left main, managing spontaneous coronary artery dissection in patients on ECMO, handling stent dislodgement, and addressing complex trifurcation lesions, providing comprehensive insights into advanced...
When atrial septal closure gets complex
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores the complexities that arise when atrial septal closure procedures become challenging. It covers hybrid retrieval techniques for occluder devices, management of device-related complications mimicking infection, resolution of uncommon complications, and case studies including cryptogenic stroke management in athletes, highlighting procedural intricacies and solutions.
Calcified lesions: when one dedicated device is not enough
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the need for multiple dedicated devices in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions. It discusses combined orbital and rotational atherectomy techniques, debulking in complex high-risk patients, and the integration of atherectomy with intravascular lithotripsy systems. Emphasis is placed on physiology and imaging-guided approaches...
Challenging transcatheter interventions for mitral stenosis and mitral annular calcification
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the challenges of transcatheter interventions in severe mitral stenosis and mitral annular calcification. It highlights therapeutic innovations such as treating mitral stenosis with annular calcification, valve-in-MAC procedures, use of extra-large Myval valves, transatrial ViMAC approaches, and combined multivalve interventions in rheumatic heart disease.
Innovative strategies in STEMI management
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session presents innovative strategies in STEMI management, including the treatment of acute saphenous vein graft occlusion, primary PCI via the left internal mammary artery, and a two-step lesion debulking approach. It also covers hybrid drug-coated balloon strategies in complex multivessel disease and the emerging role...
Imaging-guided CTO PCI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on imaging-guided CTO PCI, presenting cases that illustrate the utility of OCT, CT, and IVUS for lesion assessment and procedural guidance. Topics include woven-like CTOs, double CTO evaluation, management of late stent malapposition, and strategies for navigating complex occlusions to optimize outcomes.
5-year outcomes after transcatheter or surgical aortic valve replacement in low-risk patients with aortic stenosis (Evolut Low Risk)
01 Apr 2025

Does metallic stent ablation by rotational atherectomy influence on the coronary microcirculation?
09 Jul 2019
An 80-year-old man underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with a bare-metal stent for severe stenosis at proximal left anterior descending coronary artery 13 years ago. In-stent restenosis was treated by a drug-eluting stent 1 year later...
EuroPCR 2026 – Long-term mortality following revascularisation for left main disease
20 May 2026
Paris, France, 19−22 May 2026. The EuroPCR Course Directors have selected 3 major late-breaking trials that will be presented for the first time during EuroPCR 2026 and are set to impact practice worldwide. Among them is a meta-analysis of long-term data from 4 randomised trials investigating...
