Résumé

Data regarding the mean resident time (RT) after left main (LM) bifurcation stenting are scant. In the present study we performed a patient-specific computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis to investigate the different post-stenting mean RT values in LM patients treated with single-or double stenting techniques. Patients were identified after reviewing the local Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scans database. Overall, 27 patients (mean age 65.5 ± 12.4, 21 males) [10 patients treated with provisional cross-over stenting, 7 with the double kissing crush (DK crush) and 10 with the nano-inverted T (NIT) technique, respectively] with isolated and significant LM bifurcation disease were analyzed. After LM bifurcation stenting, the NIT showed a higher averages WSS values at all bifurcation sites compared to DK crush and provisional cross-over stenting. Moreover, the mean RT resulted lower after NIT compared to provisional or DK crush. During the diastolic phase, the average RT of the entire LM bifurcation was 0.46 s, 0.38 s and 0.33 s after using the provisional stenting, DK crush and NIT, respectively. Moreover, the average RT in the LM bifurcation decreased by 17.1 % using the DK crush and by 28.2 % using the NIT compared to the Provisional. The present OCT-derived CFD analysis revealed that, in patients with complex bifurcation LM disease, the provisional approach resulted in lower WSS values, while double stenting techniques, especially the NIT technique, resulted in a marked reduction of average RT compared to the provisional approach. In the present study we performed a patient-specific Optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis to investigate the different post-stenting mean RT values in 27 patients treated with provisional cross-over stenting, DK crush and Nano-inverted-T (NIT) stenting. The NIT showed a higher averages WSS values at all bifurcation sites compared to DK crush and Provisional. The mean RT resulted lower in NIT compared to Provisional or DK crush. During the entire diastolic phase, the average RT of the entire LM bifurcation was 0.46 s, 0.38 s and 0.33 s after using the provisional stenting, DK crush and NIT, respectively.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Data regarding the mean resident time (RT) after left main (LM) bifurcation stenting are scant. In the present study we performed a patient-specific computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis to investigate the different post-stenting mean RT values in LM patients treated with single-or double stenting techniques.
METHODS METHODS
Patients were identified after reviewing the local Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scans database. Overall, 27 patients (mean age 65.5 ± 12.4, 21 males) [10 patients treated with provisional cross-over stenting, 7 with the double kissing crush (DK crush) and 10 with the nano-inverted T (NIT) technique, respectively] with isolated and significant LM bifurcation disease were analyzed.
RESULTS RESULTS
After LM bifurcation stenting, the NIT showed a higher averages WSS values at all bifurcation sites compared to DK crush and provisional cross-over stenting. Moreover, the mean RT resulted lower after NIT compared to provisional or DK crush. During the diastolic phase, the average RT of the entire LM bifurcation was 0.46 s, 0.38 s and 0.33 s after using the provisional stenting, DK crush and NIT, respectively. Moreover, the average RT in the LM bifurcation decreased by 17.1 % using the DK crush and by 28.2 % using the NIT compared to the Provisional.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
The present OCT-derived CFD analysis revealed that, in patients with complex bifurcation LM disease, the provisional approach resulted in lower WSS values, while double stenting techniques, especially the NIT technique, resulted in a marked reduction of average RT compared to the provisional approach.
CONDENSED ABSTRACT CONCLUSIONS
In the present study we performed a patient-specific Optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis to investigate the different post-stenting mean RT values in 27 patients treated with provisional cross-over stenting, DK crush and Nano-inverted-T (NIT) stenting. The NIT showed a higher averages WSS values at all bifurcation sites compared to DK crush and Provisional. The mean RT resulted lower in NIT compared to Provisional or DK crush. During the entire diastolic phase, the average RT of the entire LM bifurcation was 0.46 s, 0.38 s and 0.33 s after using the provisional stenting, DK crush and NIT, respectively. Moreover, the average RT in the entire LM bifurcation decreased by 17.1 % using the DK crush and by 28.2 % using the NIT compared to the Provisional.
