Endovascular Cardiac Complications (ECC) 2021 (Videos + PDF)

Advanced Interventional Cardiology, Structural Heart Disease & Complication Management Forum

Endovascular Cardiac Complications (ECC) 2021 is one of the world’s leading educational conferences dedicated exclusively to the prevention, recognition, and management of complications encountered during coronary, structural heart, and endovascular cardiovascular interventions. Originally established as the renowned Lausanne Complications Course, ECC has evolved into a globally respected forum where interventional cardiologists and structural heart specialists share real-world experiences, challenging cases, and innovative solutions for managing procedural complications.

Held virtually on June 18–19, 2021, ECC 2021 brought together internationally recognized experts from Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America to discuss complex cardiovascular interventions, procedural pitfalls, rescue techniques, and patient safety strategies. Through live case discussions, international hub sessions, technology updates, and multidisciplinary forums, participants gained practical knowledge directly applicable to contemporary interventional cardiology practice.

Featuring 12 conference videos and 1 conference PDF, this program offers a unique opportunity to learn from real-world complications and understand how experienced operators approach difficult clinical situations.

Course Overview

Despite remarkable advances in coronary intervention, structural heart therapies, and endovascular technologies, procedural complications remain an inevitable aspect of complex cardiovascular care. Rapid recognition, technical expertise, and multidisciplinary decision-making are essential for achieving favorable outcomes when complications occur.

The Endovascular Cardiac Complications (ECC) 2021 Conference focuses entirely on the concept of “Learning by Sharing”, where experts openly present challenging cases, procedural failures, complication management strategies, and lessons learned from difficult interventions.

Unlike traditional cardiovascular conferences that primarily emphasize procedural success, ECC provides an honest and highly educational review of real-world complications, enabling participants to develop safer procedural strategies and improve patient outcomes.
