Stenting of bifurcation lesions
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...
متن کاملStenting of coronary bifurcation lesions: case series.
AIM To assess the procedural success and major cardiac event rate after stenting of coronary bifurcation lesions. METHODS The prospective study included 36 patients with coronary artery bifurcation lesion treated with stenting between January 1999 and December 2001 at the Institute for Heart Disease, Skopje University Center. There were 23 men and 13 women, with a mean age of 62.5+/-12.3 year...
متن کاملThe complexity of stenting in bifurcation coronary lesions.
The treatment of bifurcation lesions remain a technical challenge. Bifurcation lesions represent up to 20% of coronary stenosis that demands percutaneous coronary intervention (1). They are associated with augmented long-term risk for reintervention and stent thrombosis compared with nonbranching lesions (2). Drug-eluting stents (DES) have demonstrated a marked reduction in restenosis, resultin...
متن کاملCoronary Bifurcation Disease and Bifurcation Stenting: a Practical Approach
Approximately 20% of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) are performed to treat coronary bifurcations. PCIs in bifurcation lesions have been associated with lower procedural success rates and worse clinical outcomes than non-bifurcation lesions. In addition, PCIs in bifurcation are renowned for being technically demanding. Indeed, there are several challenges in percutaneous treatment of...
