PCI in cardiogenic shock - Possibilities and limitations
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session evaluates percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the context of cardiogenic shock, discussing both possibilities and limitations. It features complex cases including Impella-supported rotablation in elderly patients, microaxial flow pump use, and challenging interventions in young patients with multivessel chronic total occlusions, providing insights into...
Imaging guided ultralow contrast PCI
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on imaging-guided ultralow contrast PCI techniques designed to minimize contrast-induced nephropathy risk. It includes IVUS-guided strategies for distal left main bifurcation PCI, zero-contrast interventions in renal transplant patients, and precision stent placement without contrast use, emphasizing safety, precision, and frugality in contemporary PCI...
PFO closure - Progression in practice
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session presents progressive insights into patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure, comparing outcomes across age groups and evaluating residual shunting via transcranial Doppler. It highlights tailored antiplatelet therapy durations from the PROLONG registry, long-term safety and efficacy data, morphological variations of the fossa ovalis, and the...
Mitral valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, valve replacement: procedure challenges
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses procedural challenges in mitral valve interventions, including valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve replacement techniques. It covers lifetime management of patients with atrial fixated transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), approaches to recurrent mitral regurgitation, complex valve-in-valve cases, and hybrid strategies for valve-in-ring implantation, highlighting innovative...
Stay calm and carry on: bailout techniques for calcified lesions
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focused on bailout techniques for calcified lesions, this session addresses challenging scenarios such as deformed stents, post-CABG angioplasty complications, and balloon uncrossable lesions in tortuous anatomy. It provides practical approaches to manage complex calcium-related complications that may arise unexpectedly during intervention, ensuring preparedness for difficult procedural...
Intracoronary imaging guidance in challenging PCI scenarios
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the critical role of intracoronary imaging, particularly IVUS, in guiding complex percutaneous coronary interventions. It presents techniques such as IVUS-guided puncture of neo-ostia, stent implantation for ostial lesions, and innovative procedural methods like the Heart POTTER technique, underscoring the importance of precise imaging...
How to safely perform a retrograde CTO PCI: step-by-step guidance
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session offers step-by-step guidance on safely performing retrograde chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It covers the fundamentals of retrograde setup and collateral crossing, execution of a controlled reverse CART technique, and addresses common pitfalls with practical tips to improve procedural success and...
Beyond first implant: valve-in-valve, redo and leaflet modification
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores advanced transcatheter aortic valve therapies beyond the first implant, focusing on valve-in-valve, redo procedures, and leaflet modification techniques. Topics include bioprosthetic valve fracture, long-term outcomes from the DURA-ViV registry, simplified workflows for leaflet modification in redo-TAVI, and intravascular ultrasound evaluation of valve expansion...
BYPASS-CTCA: The value of computed tomography cardiac angiography in improving patient satisfaction and reducing contrast load, procedural duration and complications in patients who had previous CABG undergoing invasive coronary angiography
19 Sep 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BYPASS-CTCA Study which was presented by Daniel A. Jones at the TCT Congress 2022.
It must be understood that the paper has yet to be published for this study therefore all assumptions are based upon the presented data.
