Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Distal protection devices protect only a single distal vessel. We describe a novel technique to protect both branches following a thrombus-containing bifurcation lesion. The combination of an occlusive balloon and an arterial filter system provides an attractive solution to the challenging environment of a lesion at high risk for distal embolization supplying more than a single major branch. |
