This session addresses the prevention and management strategies for complications arising during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It presents real-world cases including management of entrapped guidewires, thrombosed aneurysms, catheter kinking, stent retrieval challenges, and complex retrieval scenarios, offering valuable insights into effective complication resolution techniques.

Explore a multi-device strategy for tackling complex calcified coronary lesions in this session. It includes case studies on left main trifurcation stenting, resistant calcified nodules treated with orbital atherectomy, severe restenosis, and critical calcifications in challenging anatomies, showcasing advanced techniques for plaque modification and lesion management.

This session highlights innovative transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) approaches for treating aortic regurgitation, focusing on off-label uses and complex cases. It features high-risk patient interventions, including nonagenarian patients, and strategies to manage severe non-calcific native valve regurgitation with balloon-expandable valves.

This session presents cutting-edge transcatheter rescue interventions in cardiogenic shock scenarios. It covers emergent valve-in-valve procedures, hybrid approaches for valvular heart disease with heart failure, management of ventricular septal rupture post-myocardial infarction, and percutaneous closure techniques for high-risk patients, emphasizing lifesaving interventional strategies.

From a clean puncture to a safe valvulotomy, a step by step video tour through performing distal radial MiniBAV – a novel technique.
