Clinical Implications of Bifurcation Angles in Left Main Bifurcation Intervention Using a Two-Stent Technique.

ABSTRACT: Objectives:The aim of this study was to assess the clinical impact of 3 bifurcation angles in left main (LM) bifurcation treated with the 2-stent technique. Background:Data are limited regarding the impact of bifurcation angles after LM percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods:Using patient-level 4 multicenter registries in Korea, 462 patients undergoing LM bifurcation PCI with the 2-stent technique were identified (181 crush, 167 T-stenting; 63% 1st generation drug-eluting stent (DES), 37% 2nd generation DES). Three bifurcation angles, between the LM and left anterior descending (LAD), the LM and left circumflex (LCX), and the LAD and LCX, were measured. The primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization (TLR). Results:In patients treated with the crush technique, the best cutoff value (BCV) to predict TLF was 152° of the LM-LAD angle. In the crush group, a significantly higher TLF rate, mostly driven by TLR, was observed in the LM-LAD angle ?152° group compared with the <152° group (35.7% vs. 14.6%; adjusted hazard ratio 3.476; 95% confidence interval 1.612-7.492). An LM-LAD angle ?152° was an independent predictor of TLF. In the T-stenting, no bifurcation angle affected the clinical outcomes. Conclusions:In LM bifurcation PCI using the 2-stent technique, wide LM-LAD angle (?152°) was associated with a greater risk of TLF in the crush, whereas none of the bifurcation angles affected T-stenting outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundProvisional 1-stent technique is currently regarded as the default approach for the majority of bifurcation lesions. Nonetheless, 2-stent techniques may be required for complex bifurcations with high compromise risk or fatal consequences of side branch (SB) occlusion. Limitations exist in current approaches, as stents gap, multiple metal layers and stent malapposition caused by imprecise placement with fluoroscopic guide and intrinsic technical defects. This study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of the novel Szabo 2-stent technique for coronary bifurcation lesions.MethodsIn the Szabo 2-stent technique, one stent is precisely implanted at the SB ostium with Szabo technique resulting in a single strut protruding into the main vessel (MV). After MV rewiring and SB guidewire withdrawal, another stent is implanted in MV followed by proximal optimization technique, SB rewiring, and final kissing inflation (FKI).ResultsThe technique tested successfully in silicone tubes (n = 9) with: procedure duration, 31.2 ± 6.8 min; MV and SB rewiring time, 26.8 ± 11.2 s and 33.3 ± 15 s; easy FKI; and 2.3 ± 0.5 balloons/procedure. Bifurcation lesions (n = 22) were treated with angiographic success in MV and SB, respectively: increased minimal lumen diameter (0.63 ± 0.32 mm to 3.20 ± 0.35 mm; 0.49 ± 0.37 mm to 2.67 ± 0.25 mm); low residual stenosis (12.4 ± 2.4%; 12.4 ± 2.3%); and intravascular ultrasound confirmed (n = 19) full coverage; minimal overlap and malapposition; minimal lumen area (2.4 ± 1.2 mm2; 2.1 ± 1.0 mm2); plaque burden (78.1 ± 11.3%; 71.6 ± 15.5%); and minimal stent area (9.1 ± 1.6 mm2; 6.1 ± 1.3 mm2). Periprocedural cardiac troponin increased in 1 asymptomatic patient without electrocardiographic change. There was no target lesion failure (cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization) at 6-month follow-up.ConclusionsThe Szabo 2-stent technique for bifurcation lesions provided acceptable safety and efficacy at short-term follow-up.

Project description:Side-branch occlusion is a serious complication of provisional one-stent strategies used to treat coronary bifurcation lesions. The aim of the study was to compare the short- and long-term clinical outcomes between the balloon-stent kissing technique (BSKT) and jailed wire technique (JWT) in patients with non-left coronary bifurcation lesions.This prospective, double-blinded, randomized controlled study enrolled 89 consecutive patients (aged 18-85 years) with 90 true bifurcation lesions (hemadostenosis ≥70%; bifurcation angle <90°; Medina classification 1.1.1, 1.0.1, or 0.1.1) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Dalian University (China) between January 2013 and May 2016. The patients were randomly divided into the BSKT (44 patients, 45 lesions) and JWT (45 patients, 45 lesions) groups. The intervention was conducted according to technical requirements using a single-stent strategy. Operative success rate, occurrence of complications, postoperative quantitative coronary angiography, and incidence of perioperative and long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) were compared between groups.The intervention success rate was 100% in both groups. After main-branch stenting, the BSKT was associated with significantly lower rates of side-branch occlusion (0% vs 15.6%, P < .05) and side-branch post-processing (8.9% vs 26.7%, P < .05) than the JWT. The BSKT was associated with significantly lower degrees of postoperative proximal main-branch residual stenosis (6.1 ± 5.1% vs 9.6 ± 8.6%, P < .05) and side-branch ostial stenosis (51.6 ± 20.6% vs 70.3 ± 20.8%, P < .05) than the JWT. The incidence of perioperative MACEs was significantly lower in the BSKT group than in the JWT group (0% vs 13.3%, P < .05). Patients were followed for a mean duration of 19.0 ± 6.1 months. The occurrence rates of long-term MACEs, angina of Canadian Cardiovascular Society grade ≥2, and severe heart failure were not significantly different between groups.The BSKT is a safe and effective technique that may have advantages over the JWT with regard to protection of the side-branch during PCI for bifurcation lesions.
