The new modified jailed-balloon technique. a The procedure starts with the wiring of both branches. b A standard POBA for the main vessel (MV) lesion. c The stent is sent to cover the MV lesion, then a balloon is sent into the side branch (SB). The proximal markers of the SB balloon were not beyond those of the MV stent. d The MV stent balloon and SB balloon were inflated simultaneously. The SB balloon was inflated to its normal pressure. Both balloon were deflated together and removed. e The MV stent was inflated with appropriate balloon pressures again
