Physiologic Assessment of Jailed Side Branch Lesions Using Fractional Flow Reserve

Abstract: The FFR measurement in jailed side branch lesions is both safe and feasible. Quantitative coronary angiography is unreliable in the assessment of the functional severity of jailed side branch lesions, and measurement of FFR suggests that most of these lesions do not have functional significance.

“…Koo et al have suggested that among jailed SB with >75% stenosis, only 37% of lesions were functionally significant. 21 In the present study, treatment strategy of final kissing ballooning might be affected by suboptimal angiographic results. Final kissing ballooning in 1-stent group might increase the SB ostial injury in patients with functionally insignificant stenosis of SB.…”

“…Previous reports have shown that coronary ischemia of jailed SB was overestimated by angiography compared with the physiological assessment observed using fractional flow reserve. 28 RCTs of the 1-stent approach demonstrated that using FKB according to flow status of jailed SB (TIMI flow grade <3) produced similar clinical outcomes as that found using aggressive SB intervention. 8,9,29 In our real-world registry, the indication for FKB depended on the operator's discretion.…”

“…21,22 In addition, most patients with bifurcation lesions did not require implantation of stents at both MV and SB, and most of angiographically significant SB lesions were demonstrated to be functionally insignificant in a fractional flow reserve study. 2,23 Therefore, unnecessary stenting at the SB might be avoided by meticulously evaluating bifurcation lesions with IVUS, even for true bifurcation. Furthermore, IVUS-guided optimal results after stent implantation including optimal stent expansion, adequate lesion coverage, and full stent apposition could reduce future adverse clinical events.…”
