Mitral TEER beyond the routine: complex and complicated cases

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores complex and complicated cases of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) beyond routine practice. It addresses challenges such as device failures, late complications, acute left ventricular dysfunction related to afterload changes, stepwise approaches to overcome procedural failures, rescue strategies in cardiogenic shock, and tailored...

Pulmonary valve: the next frontier in adult structural interventions

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights the evolving role of the pulmonary valve in adult structural interventions. It reviews complex transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) cases, strategies for managing challenging right ventricular outflow tract anatomies, and percutaneous solutions for pulmonary artery stenosis and related complications.

Place of DCB in clinical practice

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores the clinical applications of drug-coated balloons (DCB) across diverse challenging scenarios. It covers management of severely calcified nodules in acute coronary syndrome, healing of intentional dissections in chronic total occlusions using paclitaxel DCB, strategic integration of contemporary technology in complex lesion treatment, and...

New techniques and tips in CTO PCI

19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session presents new techniques and practical tips in chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It covers innovative approaches such as the side-flap technique, simplified antegrade strategies for calcified lesions, and retrograde CTO techniques, providing valuable insights into overcoming challenging occlusions.

ACST-2 (Second asymptomatic carotid surgery trial): stenting vs. surgery for tight carotid stenosis

26 Aug 2021

Ali Nazmi Calik and Pascal Meier review this trial comparing CEA with CAS for patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis, which was presented by Alison Halliday (Oxford, United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland) during a Hot Line session of the ESC Congress 2021.
