M-STENT SITUATIONS

  • Case Selection
    • Large side branches
    • Diffuse disease
    • Significant diameter changes between proximal PV and distal PV or SB
  • Advantages:
    • Maintains SB access and removes risk of SB occlusion
    • Removes risk of proximal dissection
    • Maximum treatment flexibility for complex anatomy
  • Disadvantages
    • Stent number
    • Requires high precision placement
    • Proximal stent too distal or too proximal to carina
