Challenging clinical scenarios in STEMI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores challenging clinical scenarios in STEMI, including coronary embolisation from aortic valve vegetation, blunt chest trauma-related STEMI, intramural hematoma diagnostics with multimodality imaging, acute stent thrombosis during dengue recovery, and advanced clot removal techniques beyond standard aspiration devices.
Complication two: PCI complications occurring during PCI for NSTEMI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the spectrum of PCI complications encountered during NSTEMI interventions, including coronary perforations, challenges with unexpanded covered stents, IVUS-related issues, giant coronary aneurysms at bifurcations, and distal wire perforations, providing critical lessons in complication management and operator coordination.
Let's train! How to build a functional training programme for our team?
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the common barriers to effective cathlab training and offers a structured approach to building a functional training program tailored to your team's needs. Emphasis is placed on sustainable training models, teamwork, and evaluation methods to ensure competency development and continuous improvement in interventional...
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,...
TAVI procedural complications - Part 9: coronary occlusion, difficult aortic valve crossing and more
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Explore the management of complex TAVI procedural complications, including coronary occlusion and difficult valve crossing. This session presents innovative bailout techniques, diagnostic challenges, and case-based discussions highlighting acute coronary syndrome post-TAVI and nuanced approaches to valve-in-valve interventions.
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, what is known and what is new
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines both established knowledge and novel advances in left main PCI. Topics include the use of novel stents and laser atherectomy in calcified lesions, the prognostic impact of cardiac motion during bifurcation PCI, effects of left ventricular dysfunction, and sex-specific survival outcomes, as well...
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.
ISCHEMIA-CKD EXTEND: revascularization does not improve outcomes at 5 years in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease
29 Aug 2022
Panagiotis Xaplanteris reports on the ISCHEMIA-CKD EXTEND trial results - clinical outcomes at 5 years of follow-up, which were presented during the ESC 2022 congress in Barcelona.

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...
