Abstract
Different techniques have been used to perform coronary angioplasty of bifurcational lesions. Advantages and disadvantages of the kissing balloon technique, the single guiding‐double wire technique, and the double Probe(tm) technique are reviewed. We describe a new technique for coronary angioplasty of bifurcational lesions through a single guiding catheter that has advantages of both the over‐the‐wire and the Probe(tm) systems.Keywords
