Guidewire recrossing into the abruptly occluded side branch (SB) after main vessel (MV) stenting in the coronary bifurcation is difficult, particularly if the SB has a dissection because the true lumen of SB is collapsed by a hematoma and the second guidewire easily goes into the false lumen. This paper reports a bailout technique to rescue the occluded SB that was complicated by a hematoma because of an unsuccessful guidewire recrossing after MV stenting using a small balloon dilation in the collapsed SB true lumen behind the stent strut and wire penetration.
