title: Unusual complication during a percutaneous coronary intervention for a bifurcation lesion using T and Protrusion technique.
abstract: Our case reports the first migration of a stent already deployed at high pressure in the main vessel during a 2-stent strategy for a bifurcation lesion using T and protrusion technique. The Kissing balloon was not optimal and could have led to an insufficient strut/cell opening and then to LAD stent pulled back into the artery tree. This case report highlights the importance of an optimal Kissing Balloon in two stent bifurcation technique.
