The 17th expert consensus document of the European Bifurcation Club - techniques to preserve access to the side branch during stepwise provisional stenting
Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Provisional stenting is the default technique for most coronary bifurcation lesions
Angiographic and intracoronary imaging criteria can predict side branch (SB) closure risk and may encourage SB protection strategies
Protective approaches avoid SB closure or overcome compromise after main vessel (MV) stenting, minimising periprocedural injury
