Original description
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of complex coronary bifurcation lesions frequently requires an upfront two-stent strategy. While the double kissing crush technique has been extensively studied, limited contemporary data are available comparing alternative two-stent approaches, particularly Minicrush and T-stenting and Culotte, in complex bifurcation anatomy. This study aimed to compare procedural characteristics and long-term clinical outcomes of Minicrush versus Culotte stenting techniques in patients undergoing PCI for complex coronary bifurcation lesions.Read full original descriptionShow less

Minicrush Versus Culotte Stenting in Complex Coronary Bifurcation Lesions:The Multicenter T-REX II Registry

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of complex coronary bifurcation lesions frequently requires an upfront two-stent strategy. While the double kissing crush technique has been extensively studied, limited contemporary data are available comparing alternative two-stent approaches, particularly Minicrush and T-stenting and Culotte, in complex bifurcation anatomy. This study aimed to compare procedural characteristics and long-term clinical outcomes of Minicrush versus Culotte stenting techniques in patients undergoing PCI for complex coronary bifurcation lesions.

Inclusion: Patients with complex coronary bifurcation lesions according to DEFINITION criteria.

Exclusion: Treatment with other techniques; <18 years; Non-complex coronary bifurcation lesions.
