Outcomes of patients undergoing bifurcation vs. nonbifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention at a large tertiary center

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of bifurcation lesions can be challenging. We compared the angiographic characteristics, techniques, and outcomes of bifurcation vs. non-bifurcation PCIs performed at our institution. Between 2014 and 2019 1,099 of 10,278 PCIs (11%) and 1,236 of 15,623 lesion...

Zusammenfassung:Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of bifurcation lesions can be challenging. We compared the angiographic characteristics, techniques, and outcomes of bifurcation vs. non-bifurcation PCIs performed at our institution. Between 2014 and 2019 1,099 of 10,278 PCIs (11%) and 1,236 of 15,623 lesions (8%) involved a bifurcation. Bifurcation lesions were longer (22 mm vs 16 mm; p
