Volume 16 Number 9

This issue’s mini focus on bifurcation lesions includes the Asia-Pacific consensus on coronary bifurcation interventions; a look at whether the culotte technique can be improved by a double-kissing approach; possible models for predicting myocardial territory of diagonal branches using MPI and CCTA; the use of Visible Heart technology to help visualise provisional bifurcation stenting procedures; In hypertension and stroke, the APPLY study compares left atrial appendage closure to medical therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation. In interventions for valvular disease and heart failure an insight article into quantitative assessment of aortic regurgitation using aortography with video-densitometry; ViV-TAVI compared to re-do surgery in AVR and the BASILICA technique in light of data from the Valve-in-Valve International Data (VIVID) registry.

In this issue of EuroIntervention

A mini focus on bifurcation lesions including the Asia Pacific consensus document and a look at the double-kissing culotte technique; left atrial appendage closure compared to medical therapy; assessing aortic regurgitation using video-densitometry, a new classification for the BASILICA technique, and more…
