Abstract:
We present a case of acute left main bifurcation lesion presenting as very high-risk non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome. Consequently, an immediate invasive strategy for this complex anatomical lesion in an unstable patient requires an emergent bailout strategy to restore the haemodynamic condition.Our case shows the simultaneous kissing stents technique in a patient with a true left main bifurcation lesion (Medina 1-1-1) as a strategy to overcome the compromised haemodynamics. This protocol would be an alternative life-saving strategy in an acute setting.
