  • Title: Successful percutaneous coronary intervention of an anomalous right coronary artery with high anterior takeoff using a DIO thrombus aspiration catheter.
    Author: Komatsu T, Yaguchi I, Yufu T.
    Journal: J Invasive Cardiol; 2012 Sep; 24(9):E185-7. PubMed ID: 22954572.
    Abstract:
    Selecting an appropriate guiding catheter is the most important determinant of procedural percutaneous coronary intervention success, especially with an anomalous right coronary artery with high anterior takeoff, which is rather complicated. We present a case of successful stent implantation in an anomalous right coronary artery with high anterior takeoff using DIO thrombus aspiration catheter. This method is useful when selection of the guiding catheter is rather complicated such as in the case of congenital coronary anomalies.
