Risk and prognosis predictors in STEMI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores key risk and prognostic factors in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), encompassing biomarker-based outcome prediction, the influence of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol on myocardial injury, and thrombotic risk in atrial fibrillation patients undergoing PCI. It further examines gender differences in young STEMI patients, the safety...
Primary PCI dilemmas: when imaging saves the day
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the pivotal role of imaging in resolving dilemmas during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It presents complex cases illustrating challenges such as coronary compression, thrombus burden in large vessels, and culprit lesion identification, including the use of high-definition intravascular ultrasound (HD-IVUS) to reclassify...
Left main complications - Part 2
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session covers intricate complications involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), highlighting cases of catheter-induced dissections, challenges in chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI, and rare scenarios such as stent entrapment and complex re-interventions. Emphasis is placed on the critical utility of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and...
Fighting intracardiac masses
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on the percutaneous management of intracardiac masses, presenting innovative approaches such as angiovac-assisted vegetation removal, management of mechanical mitral valve complications, and treatment options for right ventricular tumors. It also evaluates the emerging role of percutaneous therapies in infective endocarditis involving TAVI valves...
DK crush technique in a calcified LAD-diagonal bifurcation - LIVE case
Recommended by PCR
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
A 53‑year‑old man with hypertension and dyslipidemia presented with an inferior MI treated with primary PCI of the RCA two months earlier. He was referred for staged treatment of a significant calcified LAD–diagonal bifurcation lesion. Lesion preparation included non‑compliant balloon dilatation, rotational atherectomy in the LAD...

Everolimus-eluting stents or bypass surgery for mutivessel coronary artery disease: 10-year outcomes of multicenter randomized controlled BEST trial
20 Sep 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BEST trial which was presented by Jung-Min Ahn at TCT 2022.
It is a randomised, multicentre, non-inferiority trial comparing PCI with second-generation everolimus-eluting stents and CABG in patients with non-left main multivessel coronary artery disease. At two-year follow-up PCI was shown...
