Refining management of NSTEMI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session refines NSTEMI management by exploring advanced diagnostic tools, risk stratification, and tailored revascularization strategies, including bleeding risk assessment and dual antiplatelet therapy considerations.
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.
Aneurysms and fistulas: contemporary approaches
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focus on contemporary approaches to coronary aneurysms and fistulas, presenting complex interventional techniques and case-based strategies to overcome anatomical challenges and ensure effective treatment.
Haemodynamic support: from shock to complex high-risk interventional problems
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines haemodynamic support from cardiogenic shock through to complex high-risk interventional cardiology procedures. It features registry data, clinical outcomes, and procedural techniques including mechanical circulatory support and arterial access strategies.
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.
When the angiogram shows no answer for your AMI patient: what's next?
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on non-occlusive causes of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) when angiograms do not reveal clear pathology. It emphasizes the diagnostic value of intracoronary imaging for conditions such as MINOCA and spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), and discusses optimal treatment strategies and prognostic considerations.
Stentless PCI, DCB and BVS in complex scenarios
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores the use of stentless percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) employing drug-coated balloons (DCB) and bioresorbable scaffolds (BVS) in complex coronary scenarios. Through detailed case discussions, it addresses decision-making processes, technical considerations, and practical tips for successfully completing PCI without permanent stenting.
DCB - Going beyond in-stent restenosis
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines the expanding role of drug-coated balloons (DCB) beyond in-stent restenosis, including treatment of acute coronary syndromes, calcified lesions, and bifurcations. It reviews current evidence supporting DCB-based revascularization and outlines essential procedural steps to optimize outcomes.
EROSION III: A Randomized Trial of OCT-Guided Intervention in STEMI Patients With Early Infarct Artery Patency
04 Nov 2021
Elad Asher reviews the EROSION III trial, presented by Haibo Jia, which studied whether OCT guidance compared with angiographic guidance only is associated with lower stent rate implantation during pPCI in STEMI patients with non-obstructive stenosis.

Everolimus-eluting stents or bypass surgery for mutivessel coronary artery disease: 10-year outcomes of multicenter randomized controlled BEST trial
20 Sep 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BEST trial which was presented by Jung-Min Ahn at TCT 2022.
It is a randomised, multicentre, non-inferiority trial comparing PCI with second-generation everolimus-eluting stents and CABG in patients with non-left main multivessel coronary artery disease. At two-year follow-up PCI was shown...
