We report an unusual case where "stuck" bileaflet aortic prosthetic valve occluders were partly released by performing emergency balloon dilatation with 2 noncompliant balloons by a percutaneous femoral approach. ().

True trifurcation disease of the left main coronary artery is a rare situation encountered in clinical practice. To date, there is no evidence for a standardized strategy of percutaneous coronary intervention in this type of lesion. This article describes a novel three-stent strategy using a combination of Triple-Kissing Balloon Crush in both of the side branches.

Purpose: The use of surgeon-modified fenestrated endograft to treat a bleeding complication in the common iliac artery.
Technique: An Endurant limb graft was modified on back table in theater after planning the fenestration using a semi-automated centerline. The Endurant stent was planned to land flush at the aortic bifurcation.

Limited evidence exists regarding the long-term outcomes of true versus nontrue coronary bifurcation lesions (CBLs) treated with current-generation drug-eluting stents and intravascular imaging guidance. The Sapporo Cardiovascular Clinic (SCVC) registry was a prospective, single-center, all-comers registry enrolling 1,727 consecutive patients treated with bioresorbable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent under complete imaging guidance. From this registry, 440 patients with CBLs (25.

The double-kissing (DK) culotte technique is a modification of the culotte technique that employs initial kissing balloon inflation after first stent implantation. The DK culotte technique may improve strut apposition and procedural outcomes; however, data on its efficacy and safety remain limited. This study aimed to investigate the short-term outcomes of bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using the DK culotte technique compared with those of the culotte technique in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
