Gender-related differences in clinical outcomes after either single or double left main bifurcation stenting.

We sought to examine the impact of gender differences in clinical outcomes at 3 years also comparing the role of double versus single stenting approach for the treatment of coronary unprotected LM bifurcation lesions. We retrospectively analyzed both the procedural and medical data of patients referred to our hub center for complex LM bifurcation disease, treated using Crossover provisional stenting, T or T-and-Protrusion (TAP), Culotte, and Nano-inverted-T (NIT) techniques between January 1st, 2008 and May 1st 2018. The main outcome of the study was to evaluate the association between gender and target lesion failure (TLF) based on the different stenting technique used.

Impact of number of run-off vessels on interwoven nitinol mesh stents patency in the femoropopliteal segment.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of run-off vessels number on the outcomes of Supera stent (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, Calif, USA) for treatment of femoropopliteal occlusive disease.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 188 consecutive patients (mean age 68.2 ± 9.
