As a part of its mission to help interventional cardiology grow in Latin America, SOLACI alongside LATAM Bif coordinated a Workshop on Bifurcations with renowned professionals from the Torreón (Coahuila) region in Mexico, a place that is 1000 kilometers away from Mexico City. This activity, which took place on February 17, is part of the Medtronic…
Three-Year Outcomes after CTA with 2-Stent Technique Vs. Provisional Stenting for Complex Bifurcation Lesions
The prevalence of coronary lesions with bifurcation involvement is about 20% in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CTA). While provisional stenting is overall the most accepted technique, the 2018 myocardial revascularization guidelines recommend the 2-stent technique for complex bifurcation lesions, defined as side branch with lesion >5mm, distal reference diameter of the side branch ≥2.75, or…
Coronary Bifurcation Lesions: MRS or PCI? 10-Year Mortality of the SYNTAX Study
Percutaneous treatment of coronary lesions affecting bifurcations has increased in recent decades. Coronary angioplasty (percutaneous coronary intervention, PCI) in these cases is associated with an increased rate of adverse events in patients with multivessel disease and left main coronary artery lesions. The SYNTAX score, which is a predictor of total mortality, is used to evaluate…
Wire Jailing at Side Branch to Prevent Occlusion After Main Vessel Stenting: Should It Be the Standard of Care?
While the ideal treatment for coronary bifurcation is provisional stenting, this can be associated with side branch occlusion, which leads to severe adverse events. To prevent this complication, several treatments have been proposed. One of them is wire jailing at side branch before stent implantation in the main vessel. However, the actual benefit of this…
