    Author: McKeever L, Hartmann J, Bufalino V, Marek J, Brown A, Goodwin M, Stamato N, Cahill J, Colandrea M, Amirparviz F.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1988; 15(4):247-51. PubMed ID: 3265895.
    Abstract:
    Reports are presented demonstrating a technique for dissolving thrombus in coronary arteries and bypass grafts by using prolonged selective infusion of urokinase via an infusion wire. This allows one to pass a steerable guide wire through the culprit stenosis and perform angioplasty on a distal lesion which could not be previously seen.
