Abstract The European Bifurcation Club (EBC) was initiated in 2004 to support a continuous
overview of the field of coronary artery bifurcation interventions and aims to facilitate a …

Objectives The aim of this study was to compare clinical outcomes of different bifurcation
percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) techniques. Background Despite several …

Abstract The European Bifurcation Club (EBC) is an independent, nonpolitical and informal
“think tank” of scientists with a particular interest in clinical, technical and fundamental …

Objectives The present study aimed to investigate the difference in major adverse cardiac
events (MACE) at 3 years after double-kissing (DK) crush versus culotte stenting for …

Background—For the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions, a provisional strategy is
superior to systematic 2-stent techniques for the most bifurcation lesions. However, complex …

Background Bifurcation lesions account for 20% of all percutaneous coronary interventions
and represent a complex subset which are associated with lower procedural success and …

Aims In percutaneous coronary intervention for de-novo coronary bifurcation lesions, the
optimal technique for provisional side-branch stenting is still a matter of debate. We tested …

Bifurcation lesions are frequently encountered, associated with greater procedural
complexity and consequently are at higher risk for restenosis and stent thrombosis. Early …

Background The optimal interventional technique for addressing coronary bifurcation
lesions is debatable. Long-term clinical outcomes with provisional stenting (PS) compared …

There have been mixed results regarding the efficacy and safety of various percutaneous
coronary intervention bifurcation techniques. An electronic search of Medline, Scopus, and …
