Retrograde left main stenting

M Silvestri et al. Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn. 1996 Dec.

Abstract

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of protected left main coronary artery stenosis is usually performed by an antegrade approach. In this case report, we describe left main coronary artery stenting by a retrograde approach through a saphenous venous graft in a patient in whom the antegrade approach was considered less appropriate due to chronic ostial occlusion.
