✦ Synopsis


We report on a new technique of stenting a bifurcation lesion. A manually bent 180°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 corresponding to the trousers' waist. This ''trousers-like stent technique'' ensures open accesses to both vessels not obstructed by stent struts and could be a promising solution for main bifurcation lesions. Cathet.

We present a case to illustrate a new stent design that specifically allows treatment of bifurcation lesions. The device is the JoStent (JoMed, Rangendingen, Germany). This bare stent is constructed so that at each end the stent mesh has 8 cells making up the circumference, whereas the central porti
