A new horizon in left main and multivessel PCI

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session explores new horizons in managing left main and multivessel coronary artery disease with PCI. It covers comprehensive evaluation techniques, including physiology and imaging assessments, and advanced PCI strategies for challenging eccentric and heavily calcified lesions. Case presentations from diverse clinical contexts illustrate decision-making and...

TAVI interventions for all? From congenital bicuspid valve towards valve-in-valve challenging cases

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session delves into the complexities of TAVI interventions across diverse challenging cases, including congenital bicuspid valves and valve-in-valve scenarios. It emphasizes complication prevention, decision-making for the Unicorn technique, and the critical role of pre-procedural imaging, illustrated through detailed case studies from Estonia, the Netherlands, and...

Antithrombotic strategies in challenging clininal scenarios

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session presents a comprehensive overview of antithrombotic strategies tailored to challenging clinical scenarios. Topics include management in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing DES implantation, the use of low-dose Cangrelor and Bivalirudin during PCI under ECMO in cardiac arrest, polymer types in stents, and timing...

Complication two: PCI complications occurring during PCI for NSTEMI

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

This session addresses the spectrum of PCI complications encountered during NSTEMI interventions, including coronary perforations, challenges with unexpanded covered stents, IVUS-related issues, giant coronary aneurysms at bifurcations, and distal wire perforations, providing critical lessons in complication management and operator coordination.

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.
