Join this session examining complex complications in calcified lesion interventions. Learn from cases featuring controversial approaches that successfully resolved issues, coronary perforation management, retrograde iatrogenic dissection after lithotripsy, and algorithmic bailout strategies essential for navigating challenging calcified lesion complications.

Examine the unpredictable nature of coronary complications such as perforation and dissection during PCI. This session presents real-world cases illustrating sequential complications, their management challenges, and strategies to simplify complex scenarios. Understand how to anticipate, recognize, and effectively respond to these critical incidents to improve procedural...

This session focuses on acute complications encountered during distal left main PCI. Review real-world challenging cases involving multiple unexpected complications, device retrieval techniques, fractured rota burr management during rota-tripsy, and strategies to navigate complex procedural challenges.

Focus on managing TAVI device embolization in this specialized session. Discuss detailed techniques such as TAVI-in-TAVI procedures, addressing valve dysfunction, and innovative balloon-assisted retrieval methods for migrated transcatheter heart valves, emphasizing procedural nuances and bailout strategies.

A 60-year-old male with hypertension, type II diabetes, and moderately impaired LV function (45%), has a history of LAD PCI treated with three Cypher stents in 2006. He underwent further treatment for LAD in-stent restenosis in 2012, 2020, and 2022 using a new stent and DCB....

The COVID-19 pandemic caused huge disruption to healthcare services and dramatically reduced hospital admissions for MI.1 In response, the We CARE initiative was created from a collaboration between PCR and Stent – Save a Life! to rebuild patient confidence in pursuing timely medical treatment and to help...

The aims of We CARE are to rebuild patient confidence and help stakeholders provide effective and timely cardiac care through knowledge, education and training.

Paris, France. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, patients have been consistently deprived of timely cardiovascular treatment. This is due in part to measures taken in response to the sanitary crisis, but it is also due to patients' own unwillingness to seek medical help, even...

Panos Xaplanteris review the RADIANCE-HTN Study, presented by Ajay Kirtane, an international randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of renal denervation (RDN) in a population of treatment-resistant hypertensive patients. 

Pierre Deharo and Giuseppe Di Gioia provide their take on this analysis of the 5 years incidence, outcomes and predictors of hemodynamic SVD in patients undergoing TAVI and surgery from the Corevalve US Pivotal and SURTAVI trials.

Nicola Ryan provides her take on the results of TAILORED-CHIP presented by Duk-Woo Park at the ESC Congress 2025 in Madrid.
