20 Treatment of Coronary Bifurcations When is a 2 stent strategy advisable? Problematic the treatment of true bifurcations (both branches have a stenosis) with 1 stent The advantage of 2 vs. 1 stent depends on: - size and distribution of the SB - extent of the disease into the SB

21 Treatment of Coronary Bifurcations In true bifurcations, with SB suitable for stenting and significantly diseased, the strategy of elective implantation of 2 stents may have the following advantages: Lower risk of SB closure during MB stent implantation. Less difficulties in recrossing through stent struts with the second stent. Full lesion coverage (crush, culotte, V-stent, )

22 NORDIC II Nordic Stent Technique Study (NORDIC II): the first randomized clinical and angiographic comparison of the crush and the culotte bifurcation stent techniques True bifurcations: 73.3% Crush vs. 82.3% Culotte, p=0.03 (Medina classification 1,1,1-1,0,1-0,1,1) Erglis et al, Circ Cardiovasc Interv. 2009;2:27-34

24 Culotte Compared to Crush has a Trend Towards Less Restenosis There is a trend towards less restenosis of the entire bifurcation lesion because of significantly reduced SB in-stent restenosis in patients treated with the CULOTTE technique (Nordic II) In-segment In-stent Erglis et al, Circ Cardiovasc Interv. 2009;2:27-34

48 Why kissing after simple strategy? To correct a poor result in SB (but QCA / FFR discrepancy): - TIMI flow < 3, EKG, Pain - carina / plaque shift - previous stenosis - to prepare a SB stenting When SB angiographic result / flow are good?: to remove the jail strut (possible SB stenting: > 2 mm)

61 Conclusions Provisional T stenting remains the gold standard technique for most bifurcations. Large side branches with ostial disease extending >5mm from the carina are likely to require a two-stent strategy. Side branches whose access is particularly challenging should be secured by stenting once accessed.

62 Conclusions (2) Value of kissing inflations in simple stenting no advantage / no harm. Kissing balloon inflations, or pressure wire interrogation, should be used when an angiographically significant (>75%) side branch lesion remains after main vessel stenting. Final kissing balloon inflation is mandatory in two-stent techniques.

63 Conclusions (3) When using a single stent technique, in the absence of kissing balloon inflations, the proximal main vessel stent should be postdilated to an appropriate diameter. POT is an important step in bifurcation stenting. IVUS usage provides important information in LM PCI especially regarding the correct sizing of devices and in identifying complications. 74

64 Thank you!

65 Conclusions Provisional SB stenting strategy is the gold standard: POT No advantage, no harm of systematic final KB: result, SB size, FFR non compliant balloons? When using 2 stents? With a mandatory kissing - long SB lesions (> 3 mm, > 5 mm?) - but why not provisional strategy? - very difficult SB access: SB first? When not to using SB stent first?: Wide B angle Dedicated stents: randomized studies / biodegradable stents!
