Clinical Outcomes After Directional Coronary Atherectomy Followed by Drug-Coated Balloon Versus Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation for Left Main Bifurcation Lesions

Clinical Outcomes After Directional Coronary Atherectomy Followed by Drug-Coated Balloon Versus Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation for Left Main Bifurcation Lesions

Treatment with a DCB following directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) for LM bifurcation lesions was associated with a higher risk of 5-year ischemia-driven TLR compared with DES implantation, Dr. Kota Murai and colleagues, National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center, Japan, reported in the October 1 issue of The American Journal of Cardiology.

The researchers retrospectively evaluated 109 patients who underwent DCA for LM bifurcation lesions...
