|
It was reported that this was a procedure to treat an occluded tibial peroneal trunk artery, below the knee with heavy calcification and heavy tortuosity that was 100% stenosed.A hi-torque proceed guide wire (gw) could not cross the target lesion due to the heavy calcification and resistance with the anatomy was noted during removal.Then two fielder asahi guidewires were used.However, these guide wires could not cross the target lesion also due to the anatomical challenges.Therefore, the physician re-shaped the hi-torque proceed guide wire, and used a secondary bend.The gw was re-inserted but still could not cross the target lesion due to the anatomy.The gw was removed without issue.Another hi-torque proceed guide wire was used, and this gw was successfully advanced.The target lesion was treated and the patient is stable.No other issues noted.There were no adverse patient effects and no clinically significant delay in the procedure.No additional information was provided.
