Double Guide Catheter Technique for Sealing an Iatrogenic Coronary Perforation
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Coronary vessel perforation is one of the most feared complications of coronary angioplasty. The treatment of this complication relies mostly on the implantation of covered stents. However, due to their design, covered stents are difficult to advance in a tortuous or calcified vessel. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a grade III coronary perforation in which the double guiding catheter technique helped us to deliver the graft stent. CONCLUSIONS The double-guiding technique is useful in emergency situations to increase the safety and efficacy of sealing a coronary perforation.

Guide catheter induced dissection of coronary arteries is an uncommon, but serious complication of coronary angioplasty. Treatment can include emergent coronary artery bypass grafting to the affected vessel or percutaneous intervention including wiring the true lumen and exclusion stenting of the dissection flap to prevent further propagation. Detailed descriptions have been published of techni...
متن کاملNovel "crowbar effect'' approach to improve success rate of recanalization of coronary chronic total occlusions.
BACKGROUND Coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) are the most challenging lesions to treat percutaneously. Thus, consistent efforts are made to develop new approaches to treat CTO. OBJECTIVE To explore the key points of a novel ``crowbar effect'' approach to improve the success rate of recanalization of CTOs. METHODS One hundred and fifty-seven patients with CTO were treated with PCI usin...
