Novel Insights of Jailed Balloon and Jailed Corsair Technique for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention of Bifurcation Lesions
Highlights
- • No study searched a use of jailed Corsair technique for coronary interventions.
- • In our study, jailed Corsair technique was used in 2.7% of patients.
- • Jailed balloon technique was used in 1.7% of patients.
- • Corsair could not be delivered with a stent among 3.7% of patients.
- • Side branch related myocardial infarction was not reduced with these techniques.
Abstract
Background
The optimal technique for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of a bifurcation lesion remains uncertain. JBT/JCT techniques are now emerging for protection of the side branch (SB). We aimed to compare jailed balloon (JBT) and jailed Corsair (JCT) techniques to the conventional jailed wire technique.
