ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a novel bifurcated stent for providing retrograde flow of oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the myocardium via the coronary sinus without a significant or deleterious left-to-right shunt. The present invention includes a main covered stent and a side limb, generally contemplating a Y or a T shaped bifurcated stent.
