Brief Summary

True bifurcation lesions (TBLs) are not rare clinical conditions and may be associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes due to their complex anatomy and the variety of interventional therapy. Although the provisional stenting is still effective in suitable lesions, double stent techniques can be required in selected patients. In previous studies, double kissing crush (DK-crush) stenting was revealed as superior to provisional stenting in TBL of left main coronary artery. Additionally, in recent studies, double kissing approach facilitates and highlights double kissing culotte (DK-culotte) stenting with lower stent malapposition compared to DK-crush stenting. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no study about comparing DK-crush and DK-culotte stenting in TBLs. Our aim in this study is to compare DK-crush and DK-culotte stenting in patients with TBL.

Study Population

Patients with stable or unstable angina pectoris or patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and performing double stent techniques (DK-crush or DK-culotte) are included in this study.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with de novo true bifurcation lesion (Medina classification 1,1,1 or 0,1,1 or 1,0,1)
  • The main vessel diameter is least 2.5 mm and the side branch diameter is at least 2.25 mm

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients presenting with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock and Killip class III-IV heart failure
  • Patients with a history of coronary artery bypass grafting surgery
  • Patients with a chronic total occlusion in the bifurcation area
  • Lesions with severe calcification that needs additional intervention such as atherectomy
  • Patients who are not suitable to use long term dual antiplatelet therapy and patients not participating in clinical follow-up
  • Patients with hematological disorders, malignancy, end stage renal (GFR\<30 ml/min) and hepatic failure
  • Patients with active bleeding
  • Pregnant women
  • Patients with life-expectancy \< 1 year
