The impact of the use of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds and drug-coated balloons in coronary bifurcation lesions

Abstract Background Despite the improvement in techniques and tools, coronary lesions involving a bifurcation are still challenging and the outcome with drug-eluting stents is not always optimal. The role of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) and drug-coated balloons (DCB) in this setting has no...
