Volume 18 Number 4

In this issue of EuroIntervention, a State-of-the Art on PCI of bifurcation lesions covers the many anatomical and physiological factors and a review of different available stenting techniques explaining when to use each one. In coronary intervention: a novel risk score for patients with atrial fibrillation which identifies when to use dual or triple antithrombotic therapy; comparing triple and dual antithrombotic therapy PCI outcomes from the WOEST 2 Study; assessing improvement in remote myocardial perfusion after CTO PCI revascularisation; reduction in radiation exposure over 10 years from the PROTECTION VIII study. In interventions for valvular disease and heart failure, a look at TAVI-related ischaemic strokes, their consequence, complications and how to avoid them; and an article on the SavvyWire, a new pressure wire for use during TAVI procedures...and more.
