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...
Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement: pioneering techniques and solutions for high-risk patients
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session explores advanced transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement techniques and outcomes. It features cases of TricValve dysfunction due to intrinsic regurgitation, pioneering 'chimney technique' implantation in complex patients, right heart remodeling post-intervention, and innovative solutions including percutaneous heterotopic bicaval valve implantation following pericardiectomy.
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...
TAVI: alternative access - Part 2
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses alternative access routes for TAVI in patients with challenging vascular anatomy. Topics include transapical valve-in-valve procedures complicated by severe aortic regurgitation, percutaneous TAVI via the brachiocephalic trunk, and strategies for managing hostile vascular anatomies. Solutions for scenarios where transfemoral TAVI is not feasible...
Transcatheter solutions for failed mitral TEER
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents innovative transcatheter solutions for managing failed mitral TEER procedures. It highlights advanced closure strategies for inter-clip mitral regurgitation, percutaneous approaches for recurrent mitral regurgitation, novel chordae tendineae replacement techniques, and potential bailout strategies including atrial flow regulation implantation for recurrent heart failure.
Imaging to the rescue
11 Dec 2025 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2025
This session highlighted the pivotal role of advanced intracoronary imaging techniques, particularly OCT, in complex case management such as in-stent restenosis and thrombus evaluation. Through real-world cases, it demonstrated how imaging complements physiology to guide therapeutic decisions, including the use of drug-coated balloons beyond native coronary...
World Heart Day 2025: the Heart Team beyond the Cathlab
29 Sep 2025
September 29th marks the 25th anniversary of the creation of World Heart Day by the World Heart Federation. This day is dedicated to focusing international attention on cardiovascular disease (CVD), which remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide [1,2]. Today, we highlight the women...
