Brief summary

In the setting of single stent strategy for treatment of bifurcation, we investigate to compare simple strategy as provisional final kissing balloon technique(fKBT) to complex one as routine FKBT, focusing on actual myocardial ischemia assessed by scintigraphy in 7-month and to examine optimal endpoint of side branch ostium.

Detailed description

Final kissing balloon technique (FKBT) is effective and accepted technique for the treatment of bifurcation. However, in complex lesion or anatomy, much procedure-time and contrast media are needed to accomplish this technique. Recent FFR study for jailed side branch (SB) demonstrated that angiographic severe stenosis at SB ostium includes pseudo-stenosis and stent-deployment jailing SB without FKBT has comparable impact on clinical outcome with FKBT strategy. Considering simple technique for bifurcation, we sought to investigate to compare provisional FKBT with routine FKBT, focusing on actual myocardial ischemia assessed by scintigraphy in 7 month and to examine optimal endpoint of SB ostium.

Interventions

PROCEDUREstent technique: Provisional fKBT

Provisional use of fKBT only when SB flow is aggravated to TIMI0-2 after stenting for non-left main bifurcation. Additional stenting for SB is recommended if residual stenosis (\>50% in visual) or TIMI flow grade (\<TIMI 3) was seen at SB after fKBT. Stent type: Everolimus-eluting stent only

PROCEDUREstent technique: Routine fKBT

Mandatory use of fKBT irrespective of SB flow after stenting for non-left main bifurcation. Additional stenting for SB is recommended if residual stenosis (\>50% in visual) or TIMI flow grade (\<TIMI 3) was seen at SB after fKBT. Stent type: Everolimus-eluting stent only
