N2 - Objective. To investigate outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after treatment with the Stentys self-apposing stent (Stentys SAS; Stentys S.A.) for bifurcation culprit lesions. Background. The nitinol, self-expanding Stentys was initially developed as a dedicated bifurcation stent. The stent facilitates a provisional strategy by accommodating its diameter to both the proximal and distal reference diameters and offering an opportunity to "disconnect" the interconnectors, opening the stent toward the side branch. Methods. The APPOSITION (a post-market registry to assess the Stentys self-expanding coronary stent in acute myocardial infarction) III study was a prospective, multicenter, international, observational study including STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the Stentys SAS. Clinical endpoints were evaluated and stratified by bifurcation vs non-bifurcation culprit lesions. Results. From 965 patients included, a total of 123 (13%) were documented as having a bifurcation lesion. Target-vessel revascularization (TVR) rates were higher in the bifurcation subgroup (16.4% vs 10.0%; P=. 04). Although not statistically significant, other endpoints were numerically higher in the bifurcation subgroup: major adverse cardiac events (MACE; 12.7% vs 8.8%), myocardial infarction (MI; 3.4% vs 1.8%), and definite/probable stent thrombosis (ST; 5.8% vs 3.1%). However, when postdilation was performed, clinical endpoints were similar between bifurcation and non-bifurcation lesions: MACE (8.7% vs 8.4%), MI (1.2% vs 0.7%), and definite/probable ST (3.7% vs 2.4%). Conclusions. The use of the Stentys SAS was safe and feasible for the treatment of bifurcation lesions in the setting of primary PCI for STEMI treatment with acceptable 1-year cardiovascular event rates, which improved when postdilation was performed
