Abstract:
Oversized saphenous vein bypass grafts may be inadequately dilated using currently available coronary angioplasty catheters. The hugging balloon technique has been previously described for lesions in large saphenous vein grafts. We report the initial use of the hugging balloon technique using two fixed wire angioplasty catheters in an oversized saphenous vein graft.
