TAVI: complex vascular access - Part 3
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on managing complex vascular access challenges in TAVI procedures. It includes case discussions on non-crossable aortic valve stenosis, transseptal TAVI for severe aortic regurgitation with porcelain aorta, and percutaneous implantation in patients with unconventional anatomy or conditions like shaggy syndrome. Strategies for severe...
Complex combined transcatheter interventions
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses complex combined transcatheter interventions for multivalvular heart disease. It covers integrated transcatheter strategies for multiple valve pathologies, solutions for combined severe aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation with heavy calcification, and approaches to concomitant atrial functional mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. The session also discusses...
TAVI in challenging anatomies
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on the challenges of performing TAVI in complex anatomical settings. It covers issues such as valve compression, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-related left ventricular responses, alternative management strategies during crises, and handling anatomical complexities like membranous septal aneurysm at the annulus and sinus of Valsalva in...
When the interventional cardiologist meets the surgeon
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session highlights collaborative approaches between interventional cardiologists and surgeons in complex valve interventions. It includes cases such as transfemoral valve-in-valve TAVI in bio-Bentall patients with chronic aortic dissection, critical decision-making in life-threatening scenarios, the importance of access choice in TMVR, mechanical leaflet modification of failed...
TAVI and coronary artery disease - Part 2
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on the intersection of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and coronary artery disease, addressing complex clinical scenarios. It covers innovative approaches such as double "chimney" stenting with balloon-expandable TAVI, strategies for high-risk TAVR combined with multivessel PCI, advances in Medtronic Fx+ TAVR technology,...
Abstracts - Part 2
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
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...

11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This educational session from King Faisal Cardiac Center provides a detailed examination of optimal device use in calcified coronary lesions, emphasizing the role of intracoronary imaging to improve PCI results and patient outcomes. It also offers guidance on selecting appropriate strategies for coronary bifurcation lesions through...
Innovation and teamwork in structural heart interventions
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session explores innovations and collaborative approaches in structural heart interventions, focusing on aortic and mitral valve procedures. It addresses procedural indications, challenges, and the evolving roles of non-physician allied professionals. Interactive elements foster knowledge exchange and support the growth of expertise in the structural heart...
Primary Outcomes of a Pivotal Multicenter Randomized Trial Comparing the AGENT Paclitaxel-Coated Ballon with Conventional Ballon Angioplasty for In-Stent Restenosis (AGENT IDE)
27 Oct 2023
Mirvat Alasnag provides her take on the AGENT IDE trial which was presented by Robert W. Yeh at TCT Congress 2023. This pivotal randomized trial compares the safety and efficacy of the AGENT DCB to conventional balloon angioplasty in patients with ISR. It is the first...

The greatest advance in the next 40 years would be to remove the need for angioplasty
17 May 2017
Spencer B. King performed some of the first coronary angioplasty procedures in the USA—having recently received a thank-you from the first patient that he treated. He tells The Daily Wire that the steerable guidewire, rather than the stent, was the greatest advance in angioplasty and that...
