Speaker Name: Prof. Remo Albiero, Consultant Interventional Cardiologist, Sondrio General Hospital, Italy

Explore this session to:

• Understand 11th EBC Consensus recommendations favoring provisional stenting with main-vessel PCI, POT, and selective SB intervention for most coronary bifurcation lesions.
• Review correct POT sequencing, distal SB recrossing, and strategies to avoid abluminal wiring, proximal-cell recrossing, stent deformation, and malapposition.
• Recognize why ostial LAD or LCx lesions often require LM-to-branch crossover stenting to achieve complete plaque coverage and avoid geographic miss.
• Evaluate when nano-crush, DK-crush, or other two-stent techniques are appropriate for complex bifurcation anatomy requiring planned dual-stent PCI.
• Learn from an unstable distal LM bifurcation ACS case how mini-crush PCI, IVUS optimization, lesion preparation, final KBI, and repeat POT can support procedural success.
