  • Title: [Recanalization of saphenous vein graft occlusion after CABG using a newly designed coronary wire].
    Author: Hachida M, Hirai M, Tei E.
    Journal: Kyobu Geka; 1991 Jun; 44(6):473-6. PubMed ID: 1830120.
    Abstract:
    A 57-year-old male underwent coronary bypass grafting, consisting of sequentially grafting of saphenous vein grafts to the diagonal and left descending arteries and the right coronary artery. On the 12th postoperative day, he had chest pain and ECG showed significant ST elevation on the V1-5 leads. Subsequently, PTCR was performed, however, the occlusion of the graft between the diagonal artery and the left descending artery remained. Then, a coronary boring wire we designed was inserted into the left descending artery and coronary recanalization was successfully achieved.
