The aim of the current study is to evaluate the long-term clinical impact of FFR in ostial left circumflex coronary artery after left main simple crossover stenting

TAKE HOME MESSAGE

  • Discrepancy between anatomy and function is still exist in LM bifurcation, not only in non-LM bifurcation.
  • FFR guided decision making in jailed LCX after LM simple crossover stenting is valuable to predict longterm clinical outcome.
