Unusual clinical cases: thinking beyond the routine
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session presents unusual and challenging clinical cases that extend beyond routine interventional cardiology. From optimised in-stent restenosis treatment to rare anatomical anomalies and complex thrombus management, it offers valuable lessons in creative problem-solving and advanced intervention techniques.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection management with intracoronary imaging
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Explore the nuanced management of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) with a focus on intracoronary imaging. This session examines diagnostic challenges, the limited role of coronary CT angiography, and strategies for managing occlusive SCAD cases, highlighting the evolving understanding of this complex condition.
Clinical decision making for CTO PCI strategy
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores clinical decision-making in CTO PCI strategy through complex scenarios including multivessel CTO in ischemic cardiomyopathy, high-risk NSTEMI post-vein graft failure, and challenges in elderly patients. It emphasizes strategic planning and individualized approaches to optimize outcomes.
Atypical NSTEMI culprit lesions
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on atypical NSTEMI culprit lesions, this session examines rare presentations such as calcific emboli, coronary anomalies, and unusual routes to revascularisation. It provides clinical insights into diagnosing and managing uncommon acute coronary syndromes effectively.
Challenging PCI on bifurcation lesions
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Addressing the complexities of PCI in bifurcation lesions, this session highlights novel techniques such as the TAP and modified mini-crush methods, alongside strategies for managing challenging coronary anatomy. Validation of novel approaches like POT-side DCB-POT for left main bifurcations is also featured.
PCI of calcified distal left main stenosis - LIVE case
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
A 54‑year‑old man with hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia, and a history of PCI to the OM and diagonal branches in 2004 presented with a significant calcified LM–LAD stenosis.
The proximal LAD lesion was prepared with IVL followed by implantation of a 3.5 × 28 mm stent. The left...
BYPASS-CTCA: The value of computed tomography cardiac angiography in improving patient satisfaction and reducing contrast load, procedural duration and complications in patients who had previous CABG undergoing invasive coronary angiography
19 Sep 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BYPASS-CTCA Study which was presented by Daniel A. Jones at the TCT Congress 2022.
It must be understood that the paper has yet to be published for this study therefore all assumptions are based upon the presented data.

When transfemoral TAVI is not an option: rethinking alternative access strategies
18 Jun 2026
In this article, Ulrich Schäfer explores the evolving landscape of access strategies in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). While the transfemoral approach remains the gold standard, a significant proportion of patients are not suitable due to peripheral vascular disease or anatomical constraints.
Drawing on clinical evidence and...
