Complex left main patients and PCI

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session addressed the complexities of left main PCI, focusing on managing hemodynamic uncertainty in high-risk interventions, advanced techniques such as ultra-low contrast rota-tripsy PCI, precise stent positioning, and pragmatic approaches to CHIP cases, emphasizing contrast-sparing strategies and best practice balancing.

Prevention and management of PCI complications

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session addresses the prevention and management strategies for complications arising during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It presents real-world cases including management of entrapped guidewires, thrombosed aneurysms, catheter kinking, stent retrieval challenges, and complex retrieval scenarios, offering valuable insights into effective complication resolution techniques.

Stent it or leave it : SCAD dilemmas

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores the complex dilemmas in managing spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), focusing on decision-making between conservative treatment and intervention. It presents diverse clinical cases highlighting varying presentations including STEMI, young patients, and drug-induced complications, offering critical perspectives on tailored treatment strategies.

Multi-device approach to calcified lesions

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Explore a multi-device strategy for tackling complex calcified coronary lesions in this session. It includes case studies on left main trifurcation stenting, resistant calcified nodules treated with orbital atherectomy, severe restenosis, and critical calcifications in challenging anatomies, showcasing advanced techniques for plaque modification and lesion management.

CHOICE-CLOSURE: a randomized trial of plug-based versus suture-based large-bore vascular closure

06 Nov 2021

TCT 2021: Radoslaw Parma reviews the CHOICE-CLOSURE multicentre, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial presented by Mohamed Abdel-Wahab. The study compared outcomes of percutaneous femoral artery closure using a plug-based and a primary suture-based strategy in patients undergoing TAVI.

How to perform angiographic check after large-sheath removal in single access procedures

18 Mar 2024

In the absence of other arterial access, this step-by-step tutorial shows how to perform anterograde angiography of the arterial axis after removal of the large sheath, making it easier to recognise and rapidly manage vascular complications such as arterial lesions and haemostasis failure.
