Advancing appropriate microcatheters is essential for treatment. However, we still encounter inaccessible arterial branches because of the anatomical arrangement. While many successful techniques regarding microcatheters have been reported, there have been very few reports of microguidewire-shaping techniques. We developed the Simmons-Angled microguidewire INsertion to the Target (SAINT) technique for insertion of the microguidewire into inaccessible arterial branches. The SAINT technique is feasible for selection and insertion into arteries that are inaccessible with conventional methods.
推进合适的微导管对于治疗至关重要。然而，由于解剖结构的原因，我们仍然会遇到难以到达的动脉分支。虽然已经报道了许多关于微导管的成功技术，但关于微导丝塑形技术的报道却很少。我们开发了西蒙斯角向微导丝插入目标（SAINT）技术，用于将微导丝插入难以到达的动脉分支。SAINT技术对于选择并插入传统方法难以到达的动脉是可行的。
