Bench Testing Analysis of Perforation Management in the Setting of Bifurcation Coronary Intervention. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Background Management of coronary perforation in bifurcation lesions with covered stents remains challenging. Aims We aimed to describe a proper practice and toolbox for “jailed‐branch” management after covered stent deployment. Methods Using a bench model, we tested various wires with a 120° angulated microcatheter for their ability to ...
