Join us for this exciting awards ceremony, where you'll first meet the three winners selected from 322 candidates across 27 countries who received accolades for the best clinical cases. Witness the presentation of the award-winning case titled 'Percutaneous Intervention of Stuck Prosthetic Mitral Valve'. Following that,...

Prepare to be captivated by a collection of intriguing STEMI cases, curated from the AICT-AsiaPCR 2024 submissions. From a left main PCI in a patient with dextrocardia to a challenging case of primary PCI in an aneurysmal coronary artery, this session promises to push the boundaries...

A 72-year-old lady with dyslipidemia, hypertension and aspirin intolerance presented an NSTEMI. The coronary angiography showed a distal CX occlusion and a long calcified significant stenosis on proximal LAD with LAD/D3 bifurcation lesion, and a reduced LV function (47%).
Watch the operators as they perform an important...

Intracoronary imaging plays a crucial role in guiding treatment strategies for complex lesions. This session delves into the use of various imaging modalities, such as IVUS and OCT, to optimize PCI outcomes. Explore real-world case examples, including a sudden coronary arrest caused by focal stenosis with...

Explore the global challenge of hypertension, affecting one in three adults, and the strategies for screening, diagnosis, and management, including lifestyle modifications, pharmacotherapy, and device-based treatments, as outlined by Sofie Brouwers.

Martin Bergmann reviews the evolving evidence for LAAC, examining how recent landmark trials such as OPTION, CLOSURE‑AF and CHAMPION‑AF are reshaping patient selection and expanding the role of LAAC across a broader spectrum of patients with atrial fibrillation.

Jonathan Curio provides his take on TRISCEND II trial results presented by Vinod H. Thourani at ACC.26 in New Orleans.

Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BRIGHT-4 study, which was presented during AHA 2022 in Chicago, & simultaneously published in the Lancet.

This study was a randomised control trial designed to assess if bivalirudin plus a high dose infusion for 2-4 hours post PPCI was superior to unfractionated...

In this article, Jens Erik Nielsen-Kudsk reviews the evolution of left atrial appendage closure, from early trials such as PROTECT‑AF to recent evidence including CHAMPION‑AF, and discusses its expanding role in stroke prevention for atrial fibrillation.

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.

Daniele Giacoppo reports and provides his perspective on the main results of the ambitious NEOMINDSET trial, presented by Pedro Lemos from the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, São Paulo, Brazil, during a Late Breaking Trials session at the ESC Congress 2025 in Madrid, and simultaneously published in the New...

Authored by Hector Garcia-Garcia and Jorge Sanz-Sanchez, this article examines pivotal randomized clinical trials on drug-coated balloons in coronary artery disease. It highlights their role in managing in-stent restenosis, de novo small vessel lesions, and large vessel lesions while exploring future directions through ongoing trials.
