Introduction And Objectives: Percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary bifurcations is usually associated with a low success rate, a high rate of complications, and a more frequent need for target lesion revascularization. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate immediate and medium-term clinical and angiographic outcomes after the application of crush T stenting.
Methods: This approach to bifurcation stenting follows the same steps as modified T stenting.
Data on the long-term prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in young patients are limited. This study investigated long-term survival and risk predictors in a series of 108 consecutive patients =40 years old who represented 4% of 2,644 patients who presented with AMI at a single center between June 1986 and April 1992. Four patients died soon after admission.
