چکیده

The DEFINITION (Impact of the complexity of bifurcation lesions treated with drug-eluting stents) study has provided a novel classification to evaluate the complexity of coronary bifurcation lesion according to coronary angiography, but angiographic imaging due to its low resolution and inherited limitation may result in an inaccurate adjudication.We used optical coherence tomography (OCT) to further evaluate the coronary characteristics in a patient with "simple" bifurcation lesion which was classified by the DEFINITION criteria. However, a "complex" bifurcation lesion was defined and confirmed according to the OCT results.A double kissing Crush stenting approach was adopted to treat this "complex" case finally. The immediate and long-term angiographic and OCT results were excellent.OCT may be useful imaging modality to classify complexity of coronary bifurcation lesion and subsequently guide its treatment strategy.

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...

Study comparing the double kissing (DK) crush with classical crush for the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions: the DKCRUSH-1 Bifurcation Study with drug-eluting stents

BACKGROUND Classical crush has a lower rate of final kissing balloon inflation (FKBI) immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The double kissing (DK) crush technique has the potential to increase the FKBI rate, and no prospective studies on the comparison of classical with DK crush techniques have been reported. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three hundred and eleven patients with ...

Instant stent-accentuated three-dimensional optical coherence tomography of a true bifurcation lesion treated with culotte stenting

A 65-year-old woman was performed percutaneous coronary intervention for a bifurcation lesion of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the first diagonal branch (Dg). After pre-dilatation, the proximal LAD-Dg was stented with the platinum-chromium elevolimus-eluting stent (PtCrEES). After rewiring to LAD, the instant stent-accentuated 3-dimensional optical coherence tomography (iSA3D-OC...
