Atypical STEMI presentations

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Investigate atypical presentations of STEMI and the unique challenges they pose in clinical management. This session covers case studies including high bleeding risk patients, mechanical complications post-surgery, spontaneous coronary artery dissection, and recurrent events, emphasizing tailored therapeutic approaches.

TTVR: novel techniques and new horizons

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Explore novel techniques and emerging technologies in transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR). This session showcases innovative devices and approaches, early clinical experiences, and strategies to address challenges such as pacemaker leads and failed tricuspid TEER procedures.

Mitral valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, valve-in-mac: the good, the bad and the ugly

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session delves into the complexities of mitral valve interventions, focusing on valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve-in-mitral annular calcification (MAC) procedures. It addresses troubleshooting in high-risk valve-in-MAC cases, urgent transcatheter mitral valve implantation supported by microaxial flow pumps, challenges in delivering balloon expandable valves transeptally, and innovative...

Cardiogenic shock: identifying the cause and tailoring the treatment

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session focuses on the critical evaluation and management of cardiogenic shock by identifying its underlying causes and tailoring treatment accordingly. It presents complex cases including free wall rupture bail-out strategies, management dilemmas in inferior STEMI complicated by incomplete ventricular rupture, multifactorial culprit lesions, refractory hypotension...

CHOICE-CLOSURE: a randomized trial of plug-based versus suture-based large-bore vascular closure

06 Nov 2021

TCT 2021: Radoslaw Parma reviews the CHOICE-CLOSURE multicentre, randomized, controlled, open-label clinical trial presented by Mohamed Abdel-Wahab. The study compared outcomes of percutaneous femoral artery closure using a plug-based and a primary suture-based strategy in patients undergoing TAVI.

How to perform angiographic check after large-sheath removal in single access procedures

18 Mar 2024

In the absence of other arterial access, this step-by-step tutorial shows how to perform anterograde angiography of the arterial axis after removal of the large sheath, making it easier to recognise and rapidly manage vascular complications such as arterial lesions and haemostasis failure.
