We report on a new technique of stenting a bifurcation lesion. A manually bent 180Β°hinged slotted tube stent was implanted using the kissing balloon technique (resembling two trouser legs). In addition, the proximal part of the main vessel was covered with a stent mounted on two balloons correspondi

## Abstract We experienced a successfully treated case who had 99% stenosis with a severe delay of the ostial LAD which bifurcated steeply from the LMT. On treating this extreme situation, we used the newly developed βreversed guidewireβ technique, and two Cypherβ’ stents were deployed as a cullotte
Despite operator experience and improved catheter technology, acute vessel closure is inherently associated with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of complex lesions, This case study descrlbes a patient who developed an occlusive dissection post PTCA at the bifurcation of the lef
