With history of hypertension, type 2 DM, present dyspnea 2 days, visited emergency department. PE showed bilateral rales, shallow respiratory pattern. Lab data showed elevated cardiac enzyme, chest x ray showed pulmonary edema, ECG showed V1~V3 QS pattern, ST elevation, echocardiography showed almost diffuse hypokinesia.

[Interventional Management]
- Procedural step:
We applied Rinato wire to distal LAD via Launcher AL1.5/ 7Fr. Guiding catheter, Runrhtough floppy wire to distal LCX. Pre-dilate with Sapphire 2.5/15mm inflated up to 8ATM for mid LAD, Tried to push balloon to LCX, but wire twisted, withdrew with Runthrough floppy wire, tried to rewire, but failed. Added on Sion wire, successfully applied to distal LCX. Predilate with Sapphire 2.5/15mm inflated up to 8ATM for mid LCX => IVUS for lesion optimization, mid LAD :3.0mm, proximal LAD 4.0mm, LM:4.5-5.0mm, (failed to pass IVUS to distal LCX via Sion wire, exchange to ACS Extrasupport wire) ostial LCX 3.0-3.5mmThen CAG showed mid LAD Type C dissection, Stent deployment for mid LAD with Orsiro 3.0/40mm inflated up to 8ATM. We used Mini-crush technique for LM-LAD-LCX lesion, stent deploy with Orsiro 3.0/13mm inflated up to 10ATM for ostial LCX. Stent deploy and crush LCX stent with Resolute Onyx 4.0/34mm inflated up to 12ATM for LM-LAD. But difficult advance the LCx stent to ideal position. Rewire with Fielder FC to LCX with Stride MC, then exchange to Hi Torque Whisper Extra Support wire, and successfully advance the LCx stent, then inflated stent and perform the Mini-crush. Post dilatation and kissing balloon dilatation for LAD with stent balloon 4.0/34mm up to 14ATM, LCX with NC Euphora 3.0/8mm upt o 8ATM, post-dilate with NC Euphora 3.0/8mm inflated up to 20ATM => CAG showed residual stenosis <10%, TIMI 3 antegrade flow.
LAD LCx spider view.wmv LCx stent.wmv final.wmv - Case Summary:
In this wide angle LM bifurcation lesion, it is difficult to plan the strategy. We applied the Mini-crush technique for the patient due to that LCx territory is wide and its diameter still had discrepancy with LAD. So we need to preserve it, it is difficult to advance the wire, IVUS, stent depolyment due to large and sharp angle. We increased support and finally advanced the stent, successful Mini-crush technique. In a double stent strategy for the wide and large angle bifurcation lesion, Mini-crush technique was acceptable and maybe consider.
