When is the right time to perform TAVI—and how should coexisting coronary artery disease be managed? In this interview, Liesbeth Rosseel, Davide Capodanno, and Michael Joner tackle these two timely questions. They share key takeaways from the EARLY-TAVI trial, which demonstrated reduced rehospitalisation with early intervention...

At EuroPCR 2025, Angela McInerney, Didier Tchétché, and Ole De Backer discuss key results from the SMART and Evolut Low Risk trials. The SMART trial compared balloon-expandable and self-expanding valves in small annulus patients, showing better hemodynamics with the Evolut platform at 2 years. The Evolut...
Advances in the development of drug-coated balloon
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Join Florim Cuculi and Rony Mathew at this EuroPCR 2025 roundtable to assess the evolution of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) and their role in daily practice.
DCBs offer a compelling alternative to stent implantation in selected cases. However, they are not interchangeable—each is built using different drugs, carriers,...
Redo TAVI: how to treat different TAVI platforms when they fail?
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
In this discussion, Tanja Rudolph, Dan Blackman, and Radoslaw Parma take a deep dive into the current understanding of redo TAVR.
Together, they address the main challenges faced in repeat procedures - chiefly, the risk of coronary obstruction and the importance of preserving coronary access, alongside strategies...
Focal or diffuse coronary disease: how can PPG measurement contribute to clinical decision-making?
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
How can physiology guide treatment decisions beyond ischemia detection? In this round-table recorded at EuroPCR 2025, Thomas Engstrøm, Carlos Collet and Jeroen Sonck examine how pullback pressure gradient (PPG) makes it possible to identify the distribution pattern of coronary artery disease—focal or diffuse—based on a continuous...
How to manage the challenges of TAVI in bicuspid disease?
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
How should TAVI be adapted to the unique challenges of bicuspid aortic valve disease? In this EuroPCR 2025 discussion, Chiara De Biase, Kentaro Hayashida, and Didier Tchetche explore the key anatomical and procedural considerations for tailoring treatment. From selecting which bicuspid anatomies are suitable for TAVI...
Learnings from LANDMARK and Compare-TAVI at 3 years
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Andreas Baumbach, Christian Juhl Terkelsen and Didier Tchetche reviewed the latest findings from the LANDMARK and Compare-TAVI 1 trials—both focused on the performance of the Myval balloon-expandable valve.
LANDMARK compared Myval and Myval Octacor to leading self-expanding valves in a randomised controlled trial. At...
Latest learnings on the treatment of asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis from the EARLY TAVR
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Christopher Cook, Philippe Genereux, and Victoria Delgado discuss key results from the EARLY TAVR study.
In asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis, early intervention was associated with significantly less cardiac damage at 2 years, compared to a surveillance strategy that led to extensive damage...
