CONCLUSION

In performing revascularization for bifurcation lesion by Culotte technique, we should start by the more “difficult” technically, but in this case, it was so difficult to wire the LAD initially due to the calcification although it was less angulated, it was easier to direct the wire through the LM-LCX stent after displacing the calcium and within the stent struts to the LAD, hence the term “inverted Culotte” was used.
