True caring is protecting who is at your side.

The modified jailed balloon technique (MJBT) is a safe and effective tool for preserving immediate and long-term side branch (SB) patency when treating true bifurcation lesions. This technique could be routinely implemented, or selectively chosen when the risk of SB occlusion is high and a two-stent technique is not desirable. A randomized study comparing provisional stenting with the MJBT versus systematic two-stent strategy for the treatment of true bifurcation lesions is warranted.
