The BiOSS LIM stent is a dedicated device for the treatment of bifurcation lesions that present a proximal and distal part with two different diameters and a middle zone with two connecting struts facilitating side branch rewiring. In this study, after implanting the BiOSS LIM stent in the left main, rewiring to the side branch was easier compared to standard metallic stent. The device may be very useful in the treatment of bifurcation lesions for provisional stenting strategies or for two-stent strategies such as T-stenting or T-and-Protruding (TAP).

Abstract
The BiOSS LIM stent is a dedicated device for the treatment of bifurcation lesions that present a proximal and distal part with two different diameters and a middle zone with two connecting struts facilitating side branch rewiring. In this study, after implanting the BiOSS LIM stent in the left main, rewiring to the side branch was easier compared to standard metallic stent. The device may be very useful in the treatment of bifurcation lesions for provisional stenting strategies or for two-stent strategies such as T-stenting or T-and-Protruding (TAP).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
