Summary

This session examines optimal strategies for managing isolated ostial lesions in the left anterior descending and circumflex arteries, comparing left main crossover, ostial stenting, and drug-coated balloon (DCB) approaches. It emphasizes integrating multimodality imaging for informed decision-making, illustrated through detailed case discussions.

Learning Objectives

  • To understand best strategies for treatment of isolated ostial circumflex/left anterior descending artery: left main crossover vs. ostial stenting vs. DCB
  • To explore the potential role of DCB in managing isolated ostial lesions
  • To learn how to integrate multimodality assessment in decision making
