Complex Angioplasty is a specialized form of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) designed to treat challenging or high-risk coronary artery blockages. These include heavily calcified plaques, chronic total occlusions, or narrow, twisted arteries where standard angioplasty may not be effective.
When blockages occur near a bifurcation, a point where one artery splits into two, Bifurcation PCI Stenting is used. This approach requires precise placement of stents in both branches to ensure proper flow and long-term success.
These procedures are typically performed by experienced interventional cardiologists using advanced imaging and tools, offering new hope for patients with complex coronary disease.
Talk to your cardiologist to learn if complex angioplasty or bifurcation stenting is right for your condition.
