Abstract Objectives We aimed to compare bare‐metal stents (BMS), durable‐polymer everolimus‐eluting stents (DP‐EES), and abluminal biodegradable‐polymer sirolimus‐eluting stents (ABP‐SES) in the bifurcation model setup. Background The mechanism of thrombogenicity, which differs among second‐generation stents implanted using double‐kissing (DK) crush?or culotte stenting techniques, remains unclear. We have shown previously that setting up a porcine arteriovenous shunt model is feasible and useful to assess thrombogenicity at vessel bifurcation points. Methods Six porcine shunt models were prepared for the comparison between DK crush?and culotte stenting techniques using BMS, DP‐EES, and ABP‐SES. Intracoronary imaging with high‐resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed to evaluate the thrombogenicity in different stent types in the bifurcation stenting model and was evaluated by a core lab. Results Culotte stenting demonstrated more thrombogenicity at the proximal main branch (MB) with DP‐EES, side branch (SB) with BMS, and the bifurcation site irrespective of the stent type, while DK crush technique exhibited thrombogenicity only at SB with BMS and ABP‐SES. OCT analysis revealed malapposition of DP‐EES in the proximal MB with culotte stenting. Stent expansion was generally larger in ABP‐SES than BMS and DP‐EES. Conclusions The study provides hypothesis‐generating findings in distinct thrombogenicity of bifurcation stenting with DP‐ or ABP‐coated drug‐eluting stents.
