Alexander P. Why DES in distal LAD ? BVS Absorb?
Daniel W. Hi Alexander. Thank you for your question. We know from the Absorb data that scaffolds perform worse than DES in smaller vessels, associated with a higher MACE rate. An alternative could be treating small vessels with DCB. The BASKET small study result will be presented in 2018 (DES vs DCB in small vessels). DCB are good in our experience when you have TIMI flow III, no more than a dissection A or B, and less than 30% residual stenosis.
