Just presented: PARTNER 3 Low-risk Randomized Trial
Valve Durability at Seven Years @PCRonline #PCRLV @PPibarot @ACCinTouch @escardio

[Dr. Gilbert Tang @GilbertTangMD]

#TCT2025 Late breaker PARTNER 3 Low Risk 7 Year #Sapien3 #TAVR vs #SAVR showed no significant differences in composite endpoint, all-cause mortality, CV mortality, and low reintervention rates in both arms. Clinical valve thrombosis 2.8% TAVR vs 0.5% SAVR but similar BVF (valve failure) and reintervention.

In EuroIntervention, @JoostDaemen explores the limitations of traditional clinical risk scores in predicting high-risk coronary plaques — and how OCT imaging provides insights that go beyond numbers.

🆕 PARTNER 3 findings show similar rates of death, stroke or rehospitalization at 7 years among low-risk #TAVR or surgery patients with severe, symptomatic #vhdAS. Valve durability and patient-reported outcomes were also similar. More: https://t.co/6l5n7WRY6Y

I have translated into slides the topics and references used by the 2025 Guidelines Task Force on valvular heart disease to justify the recommendation for TAVI in patients aged 70 years or older. Their key argument is a certain degree of pragmatism — they consider age as a surrogate for life expectancy — and the presence of a relevant proportion of patients aged 70–75 years in at least four randomized trials. I know some people who agree with this approach and others who do not.

"I've done it!" On 16 September 1977, Andreas Grüntzig made history: he carried out the first #angioplasty, and changed the lives of millions of patients forever.

Standing on the shoulders of the giants that came before him, his vision and determination drove an entire new field of cardiology: Interventional Cardiology

Listen to this description of his incredible journey by Jean Marco, who knew him and was also a pioneer in the field. Jean Marco carried out his first angioplasty in 1979 and was inspired by Gruntzig's example to launch a LIVE demonstration Course in 1982.

This ultimately paved the way for the first PCR Course in 1989, founded with Jean Fajadet in Toulouse, and gave birth to PCR as we know it today.

Igor F. Palacios, MD, Lectureship and Symposium.

[EuroIntervention @EuroInterventio]

This study found that the hyperaemic stenosis resistance (HSR) index is more accurate than fractional flow reserve (FFR) and coronary flow reserve (CFR) in identifying ischemia-inducing coronary lesions. Additionally, an abnormal HSR measurement was a strong predictor of long-term target vessel failure. The authors conclude that incorporating combined pressure and flow measurements, as provided by HSR, could improve risk stratification of coronary lesions during invasive angiography.
