Summary

This is prospective, observational study, that will be conducted in two high-volume university interventional cardiology centers. Study population consists of patients with "true" coronary bifurcations (Medina 1.0.1; 0.1.1; 1.1.1) with \>50% stenosis in both main (MB) and side branch (SB). Patients are scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) based on clinical findings. Before PCI, patients will undergo multislice CT angiography (MSCTA). MSCTA before PCI for "true" non left main bifurcation lesions can determine atherosclerotic plaque characteristics in MB and SB and predict significant narrowing of SB after provisional stenting. Primary goal is to determine which plaque characteristics of "true" non left main bifurcation lesions in MB and SB, as assessed by MSCTA, can affect the occurrence of SB ostial compromise after provisional stenting. Patients will be seen in the office visit at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the procedure. Clinical evaluation and 12-channel ECG are mandatory at each visit. Comprehensive echocardiogram with 2D-strain analysis will be done at 3-month visit. Repeated coronary angiography will be done at 6-month visit, and will include quantitative analysis of previously treated bifurcation lesion.

PROCEDURE

multislice CT angiography

Study patients will undergo MSCTA on Toshiba Aquilion CXL 128 slice CT scanner using predefined protocol. The procedure will include calcium scoring (Agatston) then CT angiography using Ultravist 370 contrast agent ((iopromide concentration 370 mg/ml, Bayer Health Care, Germany). MSCTA angiograms will be analyzed using dedicated software Vital Vitrea Advanced 6.2, Vital Images, Minnetonka, Minnesota, US. The bifurcation lesion analyses will include: the measurement of the angle between MB and SB, measurement of the lesion length, reference diameter of the vessel, degree of stenosis, atherosclerotic plaque analysis 10 mm proximal and distal in the MB, and 5 mm from the ostium of the SB, and at the level of maximum stenosis (minimal lumen diameter).
