Technical decision-making for CTO PCI strategy
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on technical decision-making for chronic total occlusion PCI strategy. It presents diverse approaches to right coronary CTOs, complex management involving double rendezvous techniques, subintimal strategies, and innovative single-injection methods, demonstrating the evolving frontiers in CTO intervention.
Challenges for TAVI in bicuspid
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the unique challenges encountered during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with bicuspid aortic valves. It covers procedural nuances for type 0 bicuspid valves, risks associated with anomalous coronary anatomy, and complex anatomical considerations such as large annulus and tortuous aorta, culminating...
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.

Asymptomatic high-risk patients: can CT coronary angiography improve our practice?
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines the role of cardiac computed tomography (CT) coronary angiography in improving clinical practice for asymptomatic high-risk patients. It discusses detection of vulnerable plaque features, the importance of inflammation and physiology in risk assessment, and explores individualized treatment pathways including PCI, medical therapy, or...
When a primary PCI goes wrong
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session investigates complications encountered during primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). It covers management of no-reflow phenomena, innovative guide extension catheter aspiration techniques for thrombus-rich STEMI, challenges when balloon crossing fails, vein graft PCI pitfalls, and complex concurrent ischemic events involving myocardial infarction and limb ischemia....
Aortic stenosis: from diagnostic to treatment
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session provides an in-depth review of contemporary management of aortic stenosis, covering diagnostic advancements, temporal trends, and treatment outcomes. It includes insights from the LAPLACE-TAVI registry focusing on low-risk patients, discusses the growing feasibility of day-case TAVI procedures, compares transcatheter and surgical valve replacements in...
How should I treat my CTO? Adapting to local conditions
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session delves into managing chronic total occlusions (CTO) under resource-limited conditions, highlighting the essential CTO toolbox and strategic procedural planning. It emphasizes that an antegrade-first approach, often with dual arterial access, can achieve high success in many CTO cases, illustrated through complex real-world cases from...
