They also discuss recent research into left main PCI, including the conflicting results of the EBC Main and DK Crush V trials. Dr AlMoghairi then outlines his thoughts towards mechanical circulatory support in left main stenting. Finally, Dr Alasnag, Dr AlJohani and Dr AlMoghairi discuss the gaps in knowledge and opportunities for future research, including operator training and geographic differences in left main PCI.
