Treatment of Coronary Bifurcation Lesions: Comparing Reverse T and Protrusion Versus Double-kissing and Crush Stenting (TIPTAP-I)
Coronary Artery Disease
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Coronary Artery Disease focused on measuring bifurcation coronary lesions, interventional technique of coronary lesions, Double kissing and crush, DK crush, Reverse TAP, reverse T-and-protrusion
