A) If the side branch is significantly diseased at its ostium or nearby, it is sufficiently large to be stented, safety and duration of PCI are an issue: 2 stents

B) In all other conditions 1 stents and then evaluate

COLUMBUSCOLUMBUS Crush

• Standard Crush: 7F, two stents in position together, side branch inflated first, main branch stent crushes side branch

• Reverse Crush, used when provisional stenting requires another stent in the side branch: 6F, main branch stent deployed first, side branch stent is crushed against the main vessel stent with a balloon

• Inverted Crush, makes recrossing easier and improves side branch coverage: 7F similar to Standard Crush but the side branch stent is positioned more proximally than the main branch stent, the side branch stent will crush the main branch stent.

• Step Crush, as standard Crush but can be done with 6F.Advance and deploy stent in side branch
