| Summary |
"This volume presents the reader with a patient-centered approach to technical decision-making in the interventional treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions. The first section of the book is devoted to the fundamentals of decision-making with regard to interpretation of the existing evidence and understanding the role of bifurcation anatomy in impacting technique choice and outcomes. The subsequent chapters are devoted to technical decision-making with regard to tailoring technical approaches to bifurcation anatomy for patients with left main and non-left main coronary bifurcation lesions. A particular emphasis is placed on providing practical tips and tricks to optimize the results and deal with complications all in the context of actual case presentations. This book is a useful resource for interventional cardiologists who thrive to treat their patients as unique individuals who may not fit the profile represented in a given randomized clinical trial. Technical decision-making in these patients require individualized judgment utilizing pragmatic interpretation of the evidence and applying techniques tailored to the individual patient"--Provided by publisher |
