Background: "Stepwise provisional stenting" is the most adopted approach for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in bifurcation lesions. During these procedures, side-branch (SB) may deserve treatment, but the best ballooning technique is still undetermined.
Objectives: To compare the stent configurations obtained by two SB ballooning sequences after the main vessel (MV) stent implantation: proximal-optimization-technique (POT)+kissing-balloon-inflation+final POT (PKP) versus POT+isolated-SB-dilation+final POT (PSP).

Background: Rapid deployment aortic valve replacement (RDAVR) has been widely adopted, but concerns about postoperative paravalvular leak (PVL) associated with its use remain. PVL is linked to an increased risk of long-term mortality; however, there is no consensus on its treatment.
Case Presentation: Case 1: A 76-year-old female with severe aortic stenosis underwent RDAVR via median sternotomy.
