The bifurcation angle (BA) between a main vessel and a side branch is one of the crucial determinants of coronary flow and shear stress that affect the plaque distribution. Previous bench and clinical studies have evaluated the impact of the BA between the proximal main vessel and the side branch (Angle A) and the BA between the distal main vessel and the side branch (Angle B) on the clinical outcomes of bifurcation stenting. However, the impact has not yet been fully elucidated due to a lack of statistical power or different manner of the assessment of BA.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To analyze the published studies on coronary artery BA, the modalities used for assessment, and the impact of BA on interventions and attempt to define the pre-procedural protocols.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n                    <jats:title>Data sources<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A scoping review was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Methodology.

A wider Angle B promotes stent malapposition and deformation in the side branch ostium and has been reported as an independent predictor of major adverse cardiac events after bifurcation stenting; however, improvement of the drug-eluting stent, refinement of the stenting technique, and accurate 3-dimensional assessment may attenuate the adverse clinical impact of a wider BA.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec005\">\n                    <jats:title>Implications of key findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Assessment of the BA is necessary to predict the effect of bifurcation intervention procedure on the stent configuration and coronary flow at the bifurcated vessels.
