As the medical treatment and survivability of coronary artery disease improve, patients requiring catheter-based coronary intervention present with increasingly challenging coronary anatomy. Navigating complicated coronary anatomy requires a diverse armamentarium of techniques to reach distal target lesions. Here, we discuss a case in which we used GuideLiner Balloon Assisted Tracking, a technique formerly used to achieve difficult radial access, to facilitate delivery of a drug-eluting stent to a challenging coronary target.
随着冠心病的医疗治疗和生存能力的提高，需要进行导管介入冠状动脉治疗的患者所呈现的冠状动脉解剖结构越来越具有挑战性。应对复杂的冠状动脉解剖结构需要多种技术手段来到达远端目标病变。在此，我们讨论一个病例，在该病例中我们使用了曾用于实现困难桡动脉穿刺的技术——导丝球囊辅助跟踪技术，以促进将药物洗脱支架输送至具有挑战性的冠状动脉靶点。
