Then two stents are placed simultaneously in the main branch and the side branch. The side branch stent protrudes slightly into the main branch. Initial inflation of the side branch stent leaves a little overhang of the stent into the main branch. The side branch balloon is removed and the main branch stent inflated, crushing the overhanging region of the side branch stent to the side of the main branch. The side branch is rewired and balloon dilated to open up the side branch stent struts. This is followed by final kissing balloon dilatation with one balloon each in the side branch and the main branch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In mini crush technique for
