Importance of Kissing Balloon Inflation in Bifurcation Stenting

Importance of Kissing Balloon Inflation in Bifurcation Stenting Percutaneous bifurcation intervention is usually sufficient with a single‐stent strategy. When the double‐stent strategy is employed, higher restenosis and target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates are observed, especially at the side‐branch ostium. The results may be improved, however, with refinement in techniques, for example, final kissing balloon inflation and double kissing balloon inflation. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Interventional Cardiology Wiley

Abstract

Percutaneous bifurcation intervention is usually sufficient with a single‐stent strategy. When the double‐stent strategy is employed, higher restenosis and target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates are observed, especially at the side‐branch ostium. The results may be improved, however, with refinement in techniques, for example, final kissing balloon inflation and double kissing balloon inflation.
