Imaging guided ultralow contrast PCI

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session focuses on imaging-guided ultralow contrast PCI techniques designed to minimize contrast-induced nephropathy risk. It includes IVUS-guided strategies for distal left main bifurcation PCI, zero-contrast interventions in renal transplant patients, and precision stent placement without contrast use, emphasizing safety, precision, and frugality in contemporary PCI...

Mitral valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, valve replacement: procedure challenges

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session addresses procedural challenges in mitral valve interventions, including valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve replacement techniques. It covers lifetime management of patients with atrial fixated transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), approaches to recurrent mitral regurgitation, complex valve-in-valve cases, and hybrid strategies for valve-in-ring implantation, highlighting innovative...

Intracoronary imaging guidance in challenging PCI scenarios

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights the critical role of intracoronary imaging, particularly IVUS, in guiding complex percutaneous coronary interventions. It presents techniques such as IVUS-guided puncture of neo-ostia, stent implantation for ostial lesions, and innovative procedural methods like the Heart POTTER technique, underscoring the importance of precise imaging...

Beyond first implant: valve-in-valve, redo and leaflet modification

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores advanced transcatheter aortic valve therapies beyond the first implant, focusing on valve-in-valve, redo procedures, and leaflet modification techniques. Topics include bioprosthetic valve fracture, long-term outcomes from the DURA-ViV registry, simplified workflows for leaflet modification in redo-TAVI, and intravascular ultrasound evaluation of valve expansion...

How to snare a TAVI when crossing is too complex

30 Jan 2025

Crossing the aortic valve can pose significant challenges, particularly in cases involving a horizontal aorta, bulky asymmetric calcifications, or prior prosthesis implantation in valve-in-valve procedures. While some TAVI devices feature deflectable delivery systems to enhance coaxiality, current self-expanding valves lack this capability. When standard techniques like...
