parallel angioplasty Dilatation Catheter and guide wire a new technique for the Dilatation of calcified coronary arteries
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1993Co-Authors: Shahriar Yazdanfar, Gary S Ledley, Anthony Alfieri, Clifford Strauss, Morris N KotlerAbstract:Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of heavily calcified rigid coronary arteries has decreased success and increased complication rates. Three cases are presented describing a new technique for the Dilatation of severely calcified coronary arteries that were not dilatable by conventional angioplasty methods. This technique involves the use of a balloon Dilatation Catheter system parallel to a guide wire. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis 39:204-206 (1 996) Percutaneous Transhepatic
2016Co-Authors: Mitral Commissurotomy, Kirti Punamiya, Robert H Beekman, David Shim, David W M MullerAbstract:A novel, transhepatic approach to mitral valvuloplasty is de-scribed in a patient with an inferior vena caval filter. After trans-hepatic transseptal puncture, an lnoue Dilatation Catheter was passed through the hepatic parenchyma and across the atrial septum. Balloon mitral valvuloplasty was performed without complications. This approach should be considered when fem-oral venous access is restricted or is not feasible

percutaneous transhepatic mitral commissurotomy
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1996Co-Authors: Kirti Punamiya, Robert H Beekman, David Shim, David W M MullerAbstract:: A novel, transhepatic approach to mitral valvuloplasty is described in a patient with an inferior vena caval filter. After transhepatic transseptal puncture, an Inoue Dilatation Catheter was passed through the hepatic parenchyma and across the atrial septum. Balloon mitral valvuloplasty was performed without complications. This approach should be considered when femoral venous access is restricted or is not feasible.

percutaneous transluminal pulmonary valvuloplasty in a child with tricuspid atresia ventricular septal defect and severe pulmonary valve stenosis usefulness of the femoral artery approach
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2014Co-Authors: Tsukasa Torigoe, Seiichi Sato, Hiroshi KanazawaAbstract:Percutaneous transluminal pulmonary valvuloplasty may be indicated in not only isolated pulmonary valve stenosis, but also complex congenital heart diseases. Because palliative surgery for increasing pulmonary blood flow entails a risk of scar formation and immediate postoperative complications, Catheter intervention is preferred, if possible. However, an acute-angled, twisted, or tortuous access route or a small valve orifice occasionally makes it difficult for the Catheter to reach or cross the target. We succeeded in performing this intervention for such a complex stenosis effectively and safely in a patient with tricuspid atresia, ventricular septal defect (VSD), and severe pulmonary valve stenosis, thereby evading surgery. In previous reports, the Catheter for this cardiac anomaly was accessed via the femoral vein. In the present case, the Catheter was advanced through the femoral artery via the aorta, left ventricle, VSD, and right ventricle to the pulmonary valve, using a micro-Catheter in a telescopic manner, in combination with a coronary balloon Dilatation Catheter. This maneuver, which has not been reported previously, made it much easier to perform the procedure as compared to the femoral vein approach, despite the acute turn and the pinhole orifice. Moreover, reported complications of the femoral vein approach, including bradycardia, hypotension, and valve regurgitation, were not observed in this case. We conclude that the femoral artery approach can be a safe and effective alternative in patients for whom a more conventional procedure has been unsuccessful. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
