When atrial septal closure gets complex
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores the complexities that arise when atrial septal closure procedures become challenging. It covers hybrid retrieval techniques for occluder devices, management of device-related complications mimicking infection, resolution of uncommon complications, and case studies including cryptogenic stroke management in athletes, highlighting procedural intricacies and solutions.
Challenging transcatheter interventions for mitral stenosis and mitral annular calcification
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the challenges of transcatheter interventions in severe mitral stenosis and mitral annular calcification. It highlights therapeutic innovations such as treating mitral stenosis with annular calcification, valve-in-MAC procedures, use of extra-large Myval valves, transatrial ViMAC approaches, and combined multivalve interventions in rheumatic heart disease.
Imaging-guided CTO PCI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session focuses on imaging-guided CTO PCI, presenting cases that illustrate the utility of OCT, CT, and IVUS for lesion assessment and procedural guidance. Topics include woven-like CTOs, double CTO evaluation, management of late stent malapposition, and strategies for navigating complex occlusions to optimize outcomes.
