Double anchoring balloon technique for recanalization of coronary chronic total occlusion by retrograde approach.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A retrograde approach through the collateral channels is considered to improve the success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO). Various kinds of strategies and techniques are required to improve the success rate of this novel approach. We describe a case in which a CTO was successfully recanalized by the retrograde approach, using a new anchoring balloon technique (double anchoring balloon technique) which enabled the successful balloon passage through the hard CTO lesion.

Chronic total occlusion in ostium of right coronary artery – retrograde approach as the first-choice method of revascularization?
Recanalization of chronic total occlusion (CTO) located in the ostium may require the operator's ability to use the retrograde approach. We present a case of opening a chronically occluded right coronary artery (RCA) by the retrograde approach after an unsuccessful attempt of recanalization by classic antegrade technique.
متن کاملBalloon Occlusion of the Contralateral Iliac Artery to Assist Recanalization of the Ipsilateral Iliac Artery in Total Aortoiliac Occlusion: A Technical Note
Endovascular recanalization of chronic total aortoiliac occlusion is technically challenging. Inability to reenter the true aortic lumen, following retrograde iliac recanalization, is one of the most common causes of failure. We describe a case of a total aortoiliac occlusion where balloon occlusion of the right common iliac artery, following its recanalization from a brachial approach, was use...
متن کاملRecanalization of a Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion by a Retrograde Approach Using Ipsilateral Double Guiding Catheters
The retrograde approach through a collateral artery is now thought to improve the success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO), and different kinds of strategies for this technique have been developed. However, the basic principles of PCI for CTO, such as firm back-up support with a guiding catheter and fine control of the guide wire, shoul...
متن کاملThe retrograde technique for recanalization of chronic total occlusions: a step-by-step approach.
Chronic total occlusion recanalization still represents the final frontier in percutaneous coronary intervention. Retrograde chronic total occlusion recanalization has recently become an essential complement to the classical antegrade approach. In experienced hands, the retrograde technique currently has a high success rate with a low complication profile, despite frequent utilization in the mo...
متن کاملRescue percutaneous coronary recanalization of right coronary artery by retrograde approach
We describe the case of a 62-year-old female patient in whom there was an occlusion of collaterals and acute inferior wall ischemia during the opening procedure of right coronary artery (RCA) chronic total occlusion. Rescue percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of RCA by the retrograde approach was performed preventing heart muscle damage. In this article we discuss the issue of PCI by the r...
