Abstract:
A method of deploying a stent in a bifurcation includes introducing two guidewires through the main vessel and using the two guidewires for guiding a dual lumen catheter carrying a stent first to an initial position proximal to the stent deployment position, retracting one wire, and projecting it from the catheter and through a side of the stent a branch guidewire into the second branch vessel, and then moving the catheter to the predetermined deployment position while guided by the main guidewire in the first branch vessel, and the branch guidewire in the second branch vessel. The stent is then expanded, and the catheter is removed with the stent remaining in its deployed position An alternative embodiment includes introducing one wire, advancing the system over the one wire and subsequently introducing the second wire.
