AIM OF THE POT

Ensure adequate stent apposition in prox MV facilitate side branch crossing avoid crush stenting when recrossing

CONCLUSION

  • POT may be used in case of large side branch : more than 2.5mm?
  • POT might be used to aid difficult side branch recrossing (wire or balloon)
  • KB inflation may be used when angiographically significant SB lesion remain after MB stenting (DS>75% and/or TIMI flow <3)
  • Should it be different for LM???
  • Future : should we simplify?
