This session compiles recent clinical abstracts addressing diverse topics in interventional cardiology. Highlights include the HYBRID-CTO approach from a prospective case series, the cardiovascular impact of empagliflozin in type 2 diabetes, off-label use of intravascular lithotripsy for resistant in-stent lesions, and experiences with non-hyperaemic pressure ratios...

This live case–based session explores how innovation is shaping structural heart and coronary interventions.

A real-time TAVI case in a degenerated aortic valve highlights pre-procedural imaging, sizing strategies, procedural decision-making, and post-procedural care.

The session also reviews ongoing and upcoming Myval THV trials, showing how new technologies impact...

This session examines the growing global experience in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions, bringing together updated clinical evidence and real-world practice.

Recent data are discussed alongside insights from high-volume operators to show how calcium modification strategies are evolving and being integrated into contemporary PCI workflows.

By combining...

This session delivers a comprehensive overview of recent guideline changes in peripheral vascular disease and shares expert cardiologist experiences in various vascular interventions through case-based discussions. It also focuses on recognizing and managing peripheral vascular complications effectively to optimize patient outcomes.

This session addresses challenging STEMI scenarios with a focus on atypical presentations, complex complications, and advanced management strategies. Through diverse case discussions, it highlights approaches to overcome procedural difficulties, manage large thrombus burdens, and avoid clinical pitfalls in acute STEMI care.

Thanks to the contribution of a team of interventional cardiologists from around the globe, get the international perspective on Late-breaking Clinical Trials and Science released at TCT 2024 - check out the list below.

Femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is a known complication following cardiac catheterization. Rarely, expansion of the pseudoaneurysm can occur and is often catastrophic. We describe a unique method employed by our centre to deal with such a complication.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) offers an effective, less invasive therapeutic alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement in patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis. Although TAVI is demonstrated to be superior to medical therapy or surgery in patients who are at prohibitive or high risk for...

Yohei Ohno provides his takeaways from the results of the Evolut Low Risk trial which was presented by Michael J. Reardon during the ACC.25 in Chicago.

Jonathan Curio provides his take on the PROTECTED TAVR study which was presented by Samir R. Kapadia at TCT 2022. The aim was to evaluate whether TAVR with cerebral embolic protection would reduce the rate of clinical stroke in transfemoral TAVR.

Luigi Biasco provides his take on the clinical trial presented by John K. Forrest from Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA during the 2023 ACC/WCC annual congress held in New Orleans, Louisiana.
