BISS

French to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Angioplasty abbreviation
Hi all -

I am translating a medical report on a patient who underwent a coronary angiography and subsequent stenting.

This abbreviation appears repeatedly. I am not sure which arteries or branches it refers to.

Here's the context:

ANGIOPLASTIE BIFURCATION IVA-1 BISS, BISS, IVA 2
Description de la lésion de bifurcation
Branche mère: IVA 1, BISS, BISS
Branche fill: IVA2

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
