Ecografía intracoronaria durante el seguimiento en la valoración de stents liberadores de rapamicina para el tratamiento de las lesiones en bifurcación: implicaciones técnicas

Stent underexpansion below the side branch ostium was frequently found following provisional or T stenting of bifurcation lesions. This minor stent deformity was not prevented by use of a kissing balloon nor by any specific side branch treatment and had no significant impact on the restenosis rate.
