Antegrade catheterization of the superficial femoral artery
Radiology
|November 1, 1985
Abstract:
A simple method of selective catheterization of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) following antegrade puncture of the common femoral artery is described. The method entails using a Cope-type dilator introducer, which directs the guide wire from its side hole into the SFA while the tip is secured in the deep femoral artery.
