Abstract
The rePOT technique is a novel and easily applied approach for coronary bifurcations. Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) angioplasty is increasingly being utilized in management of small vessels and coronary bifurcation lesions. Herein, we propose a new approach for treating coronary bifurcation lesions with the application of DCB to treat the side-branch in addition to the rePOT technique: the POT-sideDCB-POT technique.
