Abstract:
The bifurcation optimization stent system (BiOSS) LIM (Balton, Warsaw, Poland) stent is a dedicated coronary bifurcation stent. Its unique construction is developed in accordance with the anatomy of the coronary bifurcations, thus eliminating the carina displacement as a mechanism of side branch ostium compromise. Since its development in 2008, the BiOSS stent underwent several changes with the latest version created of sirolimus eluting cobalt-chromium stent. Results from registries and randomized clinical trials showed that implantation of the BiOSS stent is safe and effective with comparable results for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and target lesion revascularisation rates between the BiOSS and regular drug-eluting stent groups. This stent provides alternative for coronary bifurcation treatment, especially when there is a large difference in diameter between the main vessel and the main branch.
