BACKGROUND: Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is defined as a non-traumatic separation of the epicardial coronary artery walls that creates a false lumen. SCAD poses a difficult challenge in management, as decisions regarding revascularization and medical management seem to be tailored to the individual patient.

1. Introduction Bifurcation lesions account for 20% of all percutaneous coronary interventions and represent a complex subset which are associated with lower procedural success and higher rates of restenosis. However, the optimal bifurcation technique remains inconclusive. The objective of this study was to systematically evaluate the bifurcation strategy comparing 2-stent strategy versus the provisional stenting strategy on outcomes. 2.
