It was reported in an article that a 3.
5x23mm xience skypoint stent delivery system (sds) was successfully implanted from the mid left main trunk (lmt) to the proximal left anterior descending (lad) artery, crossing over the left circumflex (lcx).
After stent implantation, a proximal optimization technique (pot) was performed to fully appose the proximal part of the stent in the lmt.
It was then followed with the proximal balloon edge dilation technique.
Details are listed in the article, "bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention of left main trunk treated using a proximal optimizing technique and proximal balloon edge dilation technique".
