The Best of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena: Day 3

Lecture by Dr. Hector García García – LM-PCI: IVUS and FFR/IFR? Dr. Hector García delivered an excellent presentation on whether we should use intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or fractional flow reserve (FFR)/instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) in the left main coronary artery (LMCA) to consider severe obstruction, since there is significant interobserver variability with angiography. Although the

The Best of SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena – Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO)

How to Choose the Best Approach in Chronic Total Occlusions, by Dr. Jean-Michel Paradis CTO are present in around 16 to 20% of patients with coronary artery disease who get a coronary angiography. CTO Percutaneous intervention has been on the rise, mainly due to equipment and technique advancement. During his presentation, Dr. Paradis mentioned the

The Best of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena: PCI by Radial Access

Angioplasty by transradial access was discussed during a session on Day 2. We were pleased to participate in a conference by Dr. Shigeru Saito on distal radial access.  Currently, complications associated with transfemoral access are well-established, so transradial access is suggested as the initial strategy in several guidelines of various associations.  However, Dr. Saito shared

The Best of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena: Structural—Selected Topics of TAVR

On the last session from day 1 of SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 on structural pathology, Dr. Raj Makkar, an international expert on the subject, talked about transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in pure aortic regurgitation (AR), which presents several implantation challenges, such as insufficient anchoring, embolization, residual regurgitation, ring rupture, etc.  As opposed to patients with aortic

The Best of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena: Mitral Valve

During the “Mitral Valve” session (on the first day of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Congress), Dr. Ignacio Amat Santos (SPA) delivered a great talk on transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). During his presentation, he discussed different scenarios for transcatheter replacement: mitral valve-in-vale, mitral valve-in-ring, mitral valve in MAC, and new devices for non-calcified native valves.  When

The Best of the SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 Main Arena: Complex PCI Guided by Intravascular Imaging

In the first session of SOLACI-SOCIME 2022 on “Complex angioplasty guided by intravascular imaging”, Dr. Alejandro Diaz (MEX) reviewed the evidence on intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in complex angioplasties. A meta-analysis indicated its use is associated with a significant decrease in the risk of death, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and new target lesion revascularization (TLR) in
