TYPE 001 LAD/DIAG CORONARY LESIONS • Type 4b lesions (branch ostial lesions) are very challenging • because • 1) perfect ostial stent positioning is difficult; • 2) there • is a high risk of snow-plough effect (especially in Y shape • lesions) in the main branch leading to balloon angioplasty and • sometimes stenting of a previously healthy main branch • For this reason, other strategies such as • debulking or cutting balloon may be considered. Medical • treatment or even CABG surgery should also be discussed.
TULIPE STUDY TREATED LESIONS Provisional T-stenting and kissing balloon in the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions: Results of the French multicenter "TULIPE" study. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2006 Jul;68(1):67-73 Brunel P, Lefevre T, Darremont O, Louvard Y. 14 French centers 186 patients : Zeta/Penta Stent on the main 1 stent : 66% Final kissing : 96% TLR : 15.88%

TYPE C TREATMENT FOR TYPE 001 BIF • 2005 to 09/2006 • 42 type 001 (except Ostial LAD or CX)/4531treated sites, 2393 patients • 23 type C stents, success 95%, (1 failure to recross the distal part of the stent for kissing)
Conclusion Type 001 Bifurcation treatment is not a frequent situation but technically more challenging (diameter differences) Good results of type B treatment with BMS and DES Application of this technique was successfull Compliance of the Taxus Liberté stent delivery system Good acute results
