This session explores today’s key questions in venous practice: is foam still justified in 2025? How do non-thermal techniques compare? And in combined superficial and deep disease, what should be treated first? With focused discussions on severe ulceration and deep venous insufficiency, it offers clear, practice-oriented insights to guide real-life decision-making.

Endovascular therapy has changed the landscape of limb revascularisation, but is it always the best first choice? This PVI 2025 session replay explores where open surgery still has a role, highlighting the importance of balancing both approaches to achieve durable outcomes in complex CLTI patients.

By watching this session, you will learn the following: implement a multidisciplinary strategy involving vascular surgeons for TAVI and pediatric vascular strategy, create a personalized open vascularization plan for failed EVAR, and better select patients that require treatment of type II endoleaks.

This PVI 2025 session reviews AAA management, from reconsidering treatment thresholds and improving patient selection to predicting EVAR failure and optimising radiation protection. It highlights the importance of risk-based decision-making, sealing zone assessment after EVAR as a predictor of outcomes, and practical strategies to reduce radiation exposure in the hybrid OR.

PVI 2025 LBTs highlight advances in complex aortic and lower-limb interventions. Real-world data support the safety of a bridging stent in fenestrated EVAR, with longer-term results pending. In PAD, drug-coated balloons improve quality of life and walking capacity, while BTK strategies show promising limb-salvage and patency outcomes.

This PVI 2025 session replay offers a comprehensive review of contemporary strategies for restenosis management, highlighting drug-coated balloons, lesion preparation techniques, and adjunctive debulking across complex peripheral interventions.

From right atrial thrombi and TEVAR infolding to complex branched EVAR challenges and rare fistulas, this session explores difficult cases that tested even the most experienced operators. Learn how complications were recognised, managed, and ultimately overcome, with practical lessons for everyday vascular practice.

Lee Bouwman, Bart Dolmatch, Éric Ducasse, Petroula Nana, Simon Neequaye, Antoine Millon, Jorinde van Laanen

By watching this session, you will learn the following: decide benefit for IVUS in aortic and PAD treatment, decide most dedicated imaging for Endoleak detection and help for strategy, and compare failure and benefit with IVUS versus angiography during vessel preparation and arterial management.

This PVI 2025 session replay covers crossing strategies in femoropopliteal CTOs, highlighting intra- and sub-intimal approaches. It also explores drug strategies, suggesting higher or repeated paclitaxel dosing in complex lesions, while addressing open questions on slow-flow and limus technologies.
