Abstract

Bifurcations represent challenging lesions which may benefit from improved understanding of stent-related vessel complications. Since optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows us to detect post-stenting vessel injuries, we sought to assess the geographic pattern of stent-related complications occurring during provisional stenting of bifurcated lesions.
