German term

ungeschützten

German to English Medical Medical (general) cardiology
The procedure performed on a patient is:
"PTCA eines ungeschützten Hauptstamms, Stentimplantation"

I am not sure what they mean here. Literally it is 'unprotected', but this does not mean anything to me.

Thank you for any suggestions.
