Résumé

Severely calcified coronary bifurcations complicate percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and often necessitate dedicated lesion preparation. We compared the outcomes of single- versus two-stent techniques for treating heavily calcified true bifurcation lesions following rotational atherectomy (RA). Among patients receiving RA for severely calcified true bifurcations at a single center, 59 were treated with a single stent, and another 59 received two stents. We analyzed in-hospital adverse outcomes and 1-year rates of the bifurcation-oriented composite endpoint (BOCE), defined as cardiac death, target bifurcation myocardial infarction (TB-MI), or target bifurcation revascularization (TBR). The single-stent arm was associated with more in-hospital adverse outcomes (adj. OR, 6.13; 95% CI, 1.34-28.0; p = 0.019), driven by higher peri-procedural MI rates (18.6% vs. 5.1%, p = 0.043) and more side branch compromise (13.6% vs. 0%, p = 0.006). After 1 year, both techniques had comparable 1-year BOCE (adj. HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.12-1.23; p = 0.106). We observed a significant interaction between the treatment technique and the presence of LM bifurcation (p interaction = 0.012), favoring single-stent technique in patients with non-LM bifurcations (HR 0.14, 95% CI 0.03-0.68; p = 0.015). Notably, the single-stent technique had lower rates of TBR (2% vs. 15%, p log-rank = 0.026) after 1 year. Patients with severely calcified true bifurcation lesions, treated with RA followed by a single stent implantation, had more in-hospital adverse outcomes compared to those treated with two stents. However, the superior outcomes of the two-stent technique did not translate into improved long-term results. In fact, the two-stent technique was even associated with higher rates of revascularization after 1 year.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Severely calcified coronary bifurcations complicate percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and often necessitate dedicated lesion preparation. We compared the outcomes of single- versus two-stent techniques for treating heavily calcified true bifurcation lesions following rotational atherectomy (RA).
METHODS METHODS
Among patients receiving RA for severely calcified true bifurcations at a single center, 59 were treated with a single stent, and another 59 received two stents. We analyzed in-hospital adverse outcomes and 1-year rates of the bifurcation-oriented composite endpoint (BOCE), defined as cardiac death, target bifurcation myocardial infarction (TB-MI), or target bifurcation revascularization (TBR).
RESULTS RESULTS
The single-stent arm was associated with more in-hospital adverse outcomes (adj. OR, 6.13; 95% CI, 1.34-28.0; p = 0.019), driven by higher peri-procedural MI rates (18.6% vs. 5.1%, p = 0.043) and more side branch compromise (13.6% vs. 0%, p = 0.006). After 1 year, both techniques had comparable 1-year BOCE (adj. HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.12-1.23; p = 0.106). We observed a significant interaction between the treatment technique and the presence of LM bifurcation (p interaction = 0.012), favoring single-stent technique in patients with non-LM bifurcations (HR 0.14, 95% CI 0.03-0.68; p = 0.015). Notably, the single-stent technique had lower rates of TBR (2% vs. 15%, p log-rank = 0.026) after 1 year.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Patients with severely calcified true bifurcation lesions, treated with RA followed by a single stent implantation, had more in-hospital adverse outcomes compared to those treated with two stents. However, the superior outcomes of the two-stent technique did not translate into improved long-term results. In fact, the two-stent technique was even associated with higher rates of revascularization after 1 year.
