Coronary interventions: first-in-man and novel devices

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Explore pioneering advancements in coronary interventions with first-in-man and novel devices. This session presents groundbreaking studies including cryotherapy for vulnerable plaques, a novel intravascular crossing system for coronary CTOs, sirolimus-coated retrievable scaffold therapy for in-stent restenosis, real-time intravascular photoacoustic imaging of lipid-rich plaques, and the inaugural...

Complex left main patients and PCI

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session addressed the complexities of left main PCI, focusing on managing hemodynamic uncertainty in high-risk interventions, advanced techniques such as ultra-low contrast rota-tripsy PCI, precise stent positioning, and pragmatic approaches to CHIP cases, emphasizing contrast-sparing strategies and best practice balancing.

TAVI for aortic regurgitation

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session highlights innovative transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) approaches for treating aortic regurgitation, focusing on off-label uses and complex cases. It features high-risk patient interventions, including nonagenarian patients, and strategies to manage severe non-calcific native valve regurgitation with balloon-expandable valves.

Imaging and physiology integration to guided PCI

20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Discover the integration of imaging and physiological assessment in guiding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This session highlights the use of multimodality diagnostics, including invasive and non-invasive techniques, to improve planning, strategy, and management of complex coronary lesions.

ACST-2 (Second asymptomatic carotid surgery trial): stenting vs. surgery for tight carotid stenosis

26 Aug 2021

Ali Nazmi Calik and Pascal Meier review this trial comparing CEA with CAS for patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis, which was presented by Alison Halliday (Oxford, United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland) during a Hot Line session of the ESC Congress 2021.
