Differences in rotational positioning and subsequent distal main branch rewiring of the Tryton stent: An optical coherence tomography and computational study

ConclusionsIn 45% of the Tryton implantations, distal main branch rewiring (and subsequent main branch stenting) was performed through one Tryton panel, instead of the assumed rewiring in‐between the panels. However, this did not result in unfavorable stent geometries or mechanics, as evaluated with computer simulations.
