Apparatus for treatment of a vascular bifurcation, where a first blood vessel ( 24 ) meets a second blood vessel ( 26 ). The apparatus includes a balloon ( 40, 90 ) for deployment at the vascular bifurcation. The balloon includes a first part ( 42, 94 ), which has a first inflation characteristic and is adapted to be deployed in the first blood vessel, and a second part ( 44, 92 ), which has a second inflation characteristic, different from the first inflation characteristic, and is adapted to be deployed in the second blood vessel. |
