Innovative use of a guideliner catheter to assist in snare retrieval of an entrapped kinked guide catheter during transradial coronary intervention

Rescue techniques that enable removal of severe intravascular catheter kinking are always worthwhile. We herein demonstrate the novel employment of a GuideLiner support catheter to assist in the removal of a kinked and entrapped guide catheter within the radial artery during coronary intervention. ©...
