| ==Overview==
| |
| Bifurcation lesions occur when the atherosclerotic plaque involves the origin of two separate arteries. Bifurcation [[lesions]] in [[CAD|coronary artery disease (CAD)]] are common, encompassing 15-18% of [[lesion]]s treated with [[PCI|percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)]]. The optimal treatment for these [[lesion]]s is subject to intense debate; current practice includes a variety of approaches.
