Stenting of bifurcation lesions

چکیده
We agree that an RCT cannot be compared with a retrospective analysis. However, we do not agree on the note of natural selection bias. On the contrary, we believe that our analysis is completely unbiased because literally all patients admitted for bifurcation stenting in the year 2013 were included. In a randomised controlled trial with strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, the population is more selected.

Clinical Outcome of Double Kissing Crush Versus Provisional Stenting of Coronary Artery Bifurcation Lesions
BACKGROUND Provisional stenting is effective for anatomic simple bifurcation lesions. Double kissing crush stenting reduces the 1-year rate of target lesion revascularization. This study aimed to investigate the 5-year clinical results of the DKCRUSH-II study (Randomized Study on Double Kissing Crush Technique Versus Provisional Stenting Technique for Coronary Artery Bifurcation Lesions). MET...
متن کاملDouble versus single stenting for coronary bifurcation lesions: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Several trials have addressed whether bifurcation lesions require stenting of both the main vessel and side branch, but uncertainty remains on the benefits of such double versus single stenting of the main vessel only. METHODS AND RESULTS We have conducted a meta-analysis of randomized trials including patients with coronary bifurcation lesions who were randomly selected to undergo...
متن کاملBifurcation lesions in the coronary arteries: early experience with a novel 3-dimensional imaging and quantitative analysis before and after stenting.
AIMS The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions is technically challenging. Conventional 2-dimensional angiography lacks the ability to properly image the true bifurcation geometry or its plaque distribution. The objectives of this study were to reconstruct coronary bifurcation lesions in 3 dimensions (3D) and to analyse the geometric changes that may occur immediately after stenting. METH...
متن کاملClinical and Angiographic Predictors of Major Side Branch Occlusion after Main Vessel Stenting in Coronary Bifurcation Lesions
BACKGROUND Major side branch (SB) occlusion is one of the most serious complications during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcation lesions. We aimed to characterize the incidence and predictors of major SB occlusion during coronary bifurcation intervention. METHODS We selected consecutive patients undergoing PCI (using one stent or provisional two stent strategy) for bifurca...
متن کاملRandomized trial on routine vs. provisional T-stenting in the treatment of de novo coronary bifurcation lesions
AIMS We investigated whether routine T-stenting reduces restenosis of the side branch as compared with provisional T-stenting in patients with de novo coronary bifurcation lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS Our randomized study assigned 101 patients with a coronary bifurcation lesion to routine T-stenting with sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) in both branches and 101 patients to provisional T-stentin...
متن کاملThe Effects of Side Branch Predilation During Provisional Stenting of Coronary Bifurcation Lesions: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial
BACKGROUND There is a paucity of data regarding the role of side branch (SB) predilation during the provisional stenting of bifurcation lesions. OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to assess the effects of SB predilation on the outcomes of true bifurcation interventions. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty patients with true bifurcation lesions according to the Medina classification were included in ...
