Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty Of the Side Branch During Provisional Stenting: The Multicenter Randomized DCB-BIF Trial

Oct 28, 2024

Author Shao-Liang Chen, MD, FACC, and JACC Associate Editor Celina M. Yong, MD, FACC, discuss patients with simple and true coronary bifurcation lesions undergoing provisional stenting. Main vessel stenting with a DCB for the compromised side branch resulted in a lower 1-year rate of the composite outcome compared with an NCB intervention for the side branch. The high rates of periprocedural myocardial infarction, which occurred early and did not lead to revascularization, are of unclear clinical significance.
