چکیده
Percutaneous coronary intervention in the setting of coronary bifurcation lesions is associated with increased risk for complications. The goal of this manuscript is to review the currently available classifications for coronary artery bifurcation lesions with a guide to the use of specific coronary bifurcation techniques based on lesion characteristics.

Background: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) for bifurcated lesions is associated with a low rate of success and high rate of complications compared to such treatment of lesions of most other morphologies. Symptoms occurring at the time of procedure caused by PCI may require additional angiography with or without stenting through stent struts, which subsequently increases risks of reste...
متن کاملA comparative review of various interventional methods for coronary angiography and angioplasty
Background and Objective: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common diseases today. Among the diagnostic methods, angiography is the main and gold standard in the diagnosis Since angiography is an invasive procedure, this procedure complications range widely from minor problems with short term sequelae to life threatening ones may cause irreversible damage or even death. Materials...
متن کاملCoronary Artery Bifurcation Lesions: a Review of Contemporary Techniques in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Percutaneous intervention of coronary bifurcation lesions continues to challenge interventional cardiologists. Nonetheless, the past decade has seen an explosion in the development of clinical novel techniques and well-conducted trials validating the relative efficacy and safety of these techniques. For the most part, consensus has emerged regarding the preferred technique, that being provision...
متن کاملPercutaneous coronary intervention of bifurcation coronary disease.
Bifurcation coronary artery disease is a frequent problem faced by interventional cardiologists and it affects approximately 15-20% of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The application of drug-eluting stents (DES) technology to prevent restenosis after PCI represents one of the success stories in cardiology, but DES have not resolved the bifurcation PCI challenge. Bi...
