Title Of Article :
Sequential use of buddy wire and GuideLiner support catheter during percutaneous radial intervention to an occluded circumflex coronary artery
Abstract :
Radial artery access is more commonly used for coronary interventions. GuideLiner support catheter (Vascular Solutions, Inc.) is a telescopic catheter system; It can be advanced selectively to distal coronary artery inside the guiding catheter and it does substantially increase backup support to deliver balloons and stents. Herein we discuss successful use of Guideliner catheter and buddy wire to cross the chronic total occlusion during complex intervention via radial artery access with poor guiding catheter support.
