TL;DR: Patients who received an intracoronary stent showed a lower rate of restenosis than those treated with conventional balloon angioplasty four years after implantation, as manifested by a significant reduction in the need for repeat revascularization.

TL;DR: A successful transcatheter PVL reduction is associated with reduced all-cause mortality and improved functional class in patients deemed unsuitable for surgical correction.

TL;DR: Successful recanalization of a CTO leads to a concurrent improvement in ischemic burden, exercise tolerance, angina frequency, and quality of life scores.

TL;DR: Results of the Spanish Registry for Hemodynamic and Interventional Cardiology are presented, except for a marked reduction in complications of stents procedures (mainly in those implanted in a rescue situation), which are similar to those of 1993.

TL;DR: The results of the Spanish Registry of Hemodynamic and Interventional Cardiology are presented and the number of mitral valvuloplasties decreases 16% and the pediatric interventional procedures were similar to last year.
