5 ‐Year clinical follow‐up of the COBRA (complex coronary bifurcation lesions: Randomized comparison of a strategy using a dedicated self‐expanding biolimus A9‐eluting stent vs. a culotte strategy using everolimus‐eluting stents) study

ConclusionCompared with culotte stenting with Xience, complex coronary bifurcation stenting using a dedicated strategy combining the Axxess and Biomatrix stents results in similar stent strut coverage at 9 months, and excellent clinical outcomes at 5 years.
