    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Abdominal aortography and selective injections are crucial diagnostic procedures.
    • Traditional methods often involve larger catheters or specialized configurations, potentially increasing risks and procedure time.
    • Evaluating minimally invasive catheter techniques is essential for improving patient outcomes.

    Observation:

    • A single mini-catheter technique utilizing 4.1 and 5 French polyethylene catheters in a Shepherd's Crook configuration was developed.
    • This technique was applied in a study involving 365 patients.

    Findings:

    • The described mini-catheter technique yielded high-quality imaging results.
    • The procedure was performed without any complications in all 365 patients.
