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.
Inflammation and cardiovascular risk
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Exploring the interplay between inflammation and cardiovascular risk, this session reviews contemporary research on residual risk post-PCI, inflammatory markers in coronary artery disease especially in type 2 diabetes and ACS, and prognostic tools including lipoprotein(a) and systemic inflammation indices.
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...
Modern risk prediction in TAVI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines modern risk prediction models in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It presents novel scoring systems, the prognostic significance of cardiac damage extent and progression, and the impact of multivalvular disease, enhancing patient stratification and outcome prediction.
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...
Combined mitral repair and LAA closure with two separate septal punctures - LIVE case
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
A 79‑year‑old man with hypertension, a history of basal cell carcinoma and psoriasis, presented with symptomatic severe primary MR (flail P2 due to ruptured chordae) and bleeding complications (recurrent skin bleeding) while on DOAC therapy for permanent atrial fibrillation.
Two G5 MitraClip devices were implanted. Subsequently, through...
A large-scale, randomized trial of orbital atherectomy vs. conventional balloon angioplasty in severely calcified coronary arteries prior to DES implantation (ECLIPSE)
30 Oct 2024
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the ECLIPSE trial presented by Ajay J. Kirtane at TCT 2024 in Washington.

Drug-coated balloon (DCB) technology: A pioneer’s view of the historical evolution and future directions
08 Jan 2025
In this article, Bruno Scheller explores advances in local drug delivery, from drug-coated balloons to novel antiproliferative agents. These innovations aim to reduce restenosis, minimize permanent implants, and pave the way for patient-specific coronary artery disease treatments.
