Hypothesis: Stent size influence the acute outcome Implantation methods CONCLUSION When performing a crossover stent to LMT-LAD, the stent size should be selected according to the vessel diameter on the proximal side of the bifurcation. By selecting a larger stent size, the incomplete stent apposition area can be reduced at the LCx ostium after KBT. By doing so, incomplete stent apposition volume can be reduced at the LM-shaft after KBT , and the stent expansion rate can be greatly increased. The risk of injury on the LAD distal side during stent implantation can be reduced by thorough pre- dilatation and devising the stent placement method.
European Bifurcation Club 2019, EBC 2019 - Barcelona, Spain CORONARY BIFURCATION IMAGING What are the best imaging criteria for adequate stent expansion and apposition in bifurcation lesion Author: Nicolas Amabile, MD, PhD, Institut Mutualiste Montsouris , Paris , France CONCLUSION Best imaging criteria for bifurcation PCI quality assessment are not completely established. Although consensus criteria exist for non bifurcated lesions, they might not be applicable “as they are” to bifurcations. Malapposition criteria can be applied for MV and MB. Special alention must be given in the future to redefine our objectives for adequate stent expansion.
