Feasibility of facilitated antegrade dissection with Stingray‐based re‐entry for coronary chronic total occlusions with previously stented graft‐to‐native‐vessel anastomoses
Abstract:Facilitated antegrade dissection re-entry (F-ADR) is a technique described for treating post coronary artery bypass surgery chronic total occlusions (CTO) when there is flush occlusion of the distal cap of the CTO at the vein graft anastomosis.In this scenario retrograde access is usually impossible and if antegrade wiring fails, F-ADR is then the best option. Following antegrade dissection past the anastomosis, a balloon is delivered via the vein graft and inflated in the native vessel distal to the anastomos… Show more
