摘要
Bifurcation lesions are still technically challenging even in the era of modern stents. High incidence of restenosis both in main vessel and side branch limits the long-term prognosis although several kinds of techniques have been identified to be successful for coronary bifurcations. Reports have demonstrated the main reason for higher incidence of ostial side branch even though drugeluting stent used in side vessel lies in that there were gaps in metal coverage and drug application. Therefore,
