Stent strut fracture-induced restenosis in a bifurcation lesion treated with the crush stenting technique.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Percutaneous treatment of a bifurcation lesion still shows a significant complication rate, mainly because of restenosis at the ostial site of the side branch vessel. Different techniques, such as V-stenting, culottes-stenting or crush stenting, allow full ostial coverage and may therefore achieve uniform drug distribution within the lesion. The crush technique results in a strong mechanical constraint on the side branch stent. A case of stent strut fracture-induced restenosis in a bifurcation lesion treated with the crush stenting technique is described.

Randomized Comparison of the Crush Versus the Culotte Stenting for Coronary Artery Bifurcation Lesions
BACKGROUND The crush and the culotte stenting were both reported to be effective for complex bifurcation lesion treatment. However, their comparative performance remains elusive. METHODS A total of 300 patients with coronary bifurcation lesions were randomly assigned to crush (n = 150) and culotte (n = 150) treatment. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MA...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary bifurcations is usually associated with a low success rate, a high rate of complications, and a more frequent need for target lesion revascularization. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate immediate and medium-term clinical and angiographic outcomes after the application of crush T stenting. METHODS This ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to compare long-term follow-up results of crush versus culotte stent techniques in coronary bifurcation lesions. BACKGROUND The randomized Nordic Stent Technique Study showed similar 6-month clinical and 8-month angiographic results with the crush and culotte stent techniques of de novo coronary artery bifurcation lesions using sirolimus-eluting stents. Her...
متن کاملRandomized comparison of coronary bifurcation stenting with the crush versus the culotte technique using sirolimus eluting stents: the Nordic stent technique study.
BACKGROUND In a number of coronary bifurcation lesions, both the main vessel and the side branch need stent coverage. Using sirolimus eluting stents, we compared 2 dedicated bifurcation stent techniques, the crush and the culotte techniques in a randomized trial with separate clinical and angiographic end-points. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 424 patients with a bifurcation lesion were rando...
متن کاملBifurcation coronary lesions treated with the "crush" technique: an intravascular ultrasound analysis.
OBJECTIVES We report intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) findings after crush-stenting of bifurcation lesions. BACKGROUND Preliminary results with the crush-stent technique are encouraging; however, isolated reports suggest that restenosis at the side branch (SB) ostium continues to be a problem. METHODS Forty patients with bifurcation lesions underwent crush-stenting with the sirolimus-eluting...
