Title: Successful percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation in anomalous right coronary arteries arising from the left sinus of valsalva: a report of two cases. Author: Cohen MG, Tolleson TR, Peter RH, Harrison JK, Sketch MH. Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2002 Jan; 55(1):105-8. PubMed ID: 11793505.

In both cases, we used an oversized 6 Fr Judkins left guiding catheter, which provided excellent angiographic visualization and guide support for stent delivery.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
