Abstract

3D, 3-dimensional CAD, coronary artery disease CFD, computational fluid dynamics HD IVUS, high-definition intravascular ultrasound LAD, left anterior descending LCx, left circumflex LM, left main PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention computational simulations coronary artery disease imaging left main percutaneous coronary interventions stents
Left main coronary artery stenting requires rigorous planning and optimal execution. This case series presents a new approach to left main stenting guided by preprocedural patient-specific computational simulations. Three patients with significant left main artery disease underwent simulation-guided intervention using a novel stent scaffold purpose-built for large coronary arteries. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
