Bifurcation lesions

Find all the latest content on bifurcation lesions published on this website.

The percutaneous treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions is very dynamic with an ongoing evolution in clinical approaches and techniques and the management of more complex cases continuing to evolve. Keep up-to-date about all these changes along with the latest research and devices as well as advances in imaging, the use of adjunctive pharmacotherapy, vascular access or understanding bleeding risks.

Complex non left main bifurcation PCI - LIVE case

19 Dec 2024 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2024

A 71-year-old male presented with angina (CCS 2), normal left ventricular function, and mitral stenosis. Coronary angiography revealed severe ostial stenosis of the circumflex artery and a significant LAD/diagonal bifurcation lesion (Medina 0.1.1).

The operators performed balloon valvuloplasty to treat the mitral stenosis, followed by LAD/diagonal PCI....

Bifurcation PCI with TAP technique - LIVE case

05 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024

A 72-year-old lady with dyslipidemia, hypertension and aspirin intolerance presented an NSTEMI. The coronary angiography showed a distal CX occlusion and a long calcified significant stenosis on proximal LAD with LAD/D3 bifurcation lesion, and a reduced LV function (47%).
Watch the operators as they perform an important...

Percutaneous coronary intervention for bifurcation coronary lesions using optimised angiographic guidance: the 18th Consensus Document from the European Bifurcation Club

24 Jun 2024

In coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL) PCI, intracoronary imaging (ICI) is preferred for its superior outcomes over angiography alone, but its adoption is limited by education and technology access barriers, resulting in most CBL PCIs still using angiographic guidance only.
