Study summary

The Reverse T-stenting And Minimal Protrusion (Reverse TAP) is an up-front 2-stent technique that treats complex coronary bifurcation. Compared to crush techniques, it does not require crushing of the side branch stent but only minimal protrusion of the side branch stent before main vessel stenting. Nowadays, no studies compare the Reverse-TAP and the External Minicrush in treating complex coronary bifurcation, so eventually, procedural, clinical and safety differences remain unknown.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients \>18 years old; * Patients with an indication of PCI, including Chronic Coronary syndrome (CCS) and Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), according to current guidelines recommendations; According to Medina and Definition criteria, patients with at least true and complex coronary lesions involved in coronary bifurcation. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients that refused informed consent; * Patients without valid vascular access that could make unsafe PCI; * Patients with an expected life of less than one year; * Patients with scheduled major surgery that required prolonged DAPT interruption; * Pregnant patients; * Patients with DAPT contraindications.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Target Lesion Failure (TLF) (Composite of all causes of death, non-fatal TVMI, ischemia-driven target lesion revascularisation (TLR) + Definite or probable ST+ ISR >50% at planned coronary angiography or Coro-TC. — 12-moths
    The investigators check eventually differences in technical and clinical performance between the two techniques through coronary angiography or Coro-TC (centre preferences).
