Air embolism (AE) is a rare complication during interventional procedures and one of the most scaring for interventional cardiologists. Air bubbles in the coronary circulation often result in ischemic symptoms, vasospasm, and even cardiac arrest. In addition, arrhythmias are common and closely related to the coronary ...

This image highlights the challenges of managing infective endocarditis (IE) and explores the potential role of transcatheter extraction devices in addressing unmet needs for patients who cannot undergo surgery.

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.

Because of the current COVID-19 environment with an exponential development of ‘digital format of postgraduate learning events’, often on the same topics, it seems essential to remember the foundation of effective post graduate learning in the field of medicine, and how we...

Lars Wallentin and Stefan James received the Andreas Grüntzig Ethica Award during EuroPCR 2025, on behalf of a wider team of cardiovascular registry experts who have contributed in an extraordinary way to the PCR mission. 

EuroPCR – the 2023 edition – has been prepared with a new Core Team. Indeed, Jean Fajadet and William Wijns invited three new Course Directors to join them in this role at the end of last year. It was all part of a general reorganisation of PCR’s structure, during...

Fernando Alfonso and Javier Cuesta discuss the growing role of drug-coated balloons as an alternative to stents in percutaneous coronary interventions. Highlighting advantages like reduced in-stent restenosis, they emphasize the need for robust clinical studies to refine DCB use.
