Coronary Artery Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
In this COMPLETE randomized trial, using the contemporary second-generation drug-eluting stent, we aimed to test whether the crush technique is superior to the culotte technique for the treatment of bifurcation lesions in terms of 1-year target-lesion failure.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
