Stentys self-apposing stent was designed to face complex lesions in the precincts of percutaneous coronary interventions. Nitinol platform and disconnectable struts were designed to provide a complete apposition on the vessel wall in challenging lesions such as significant tapering, primary angioplasty in ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and bifurcation. Stentys X-position S is a sirolimus eluting stent with a novel delivery system aiming to improve positioning.

Objectives: To assess long-term safety and efficacy of the Xposition S self-apposing stent in the treatment of unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease.
Background: Percutaneous intervention with stents has emerged as a valid alternative to surgical revascularization to treat ULMCA disease. Conventional balloon-expandable stents face technical challenges, particularly in large left main diameter requiring extensive optimization and side branch access in distal bifurcation.

Coronary bifurcation revascularization needs to take account of the diameter differential between vessels and to limit side-branch obstruction (SBO). The self-apposing properties of the Xposition S™ stent (STENTYS, France) seem interesting in this regard. The present experimental fractal bench study determined the best provisional stenting technique using Xposition S™.

Percutaneous coronary interventions are the primary revascularization strategy for the vast majority of patients with coronary artery disease. Nevertheless, challenging settings still limit optimal results, especially in case of significant tapering, bifurcations or primary angioplasty in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Stentys Self-Apposing stent was designed to improve strut apposition to the vessel wall and to adapt to difficult targets.
