History: CAD status post coronary artery bypass grafting in 1994 w/LIMA to LAD, vein graft to RCA. vein graft to OM1 &OM2 w/subsequent percutaeous interventions w/Cypher stent to the distal RCA, balloon angioplasty of the proximal circumflex, as well as stenting of the mid cicumflex, stenting of the vein graft to the RCA & stenting of the mid PDA, also w/history of hypertension, diabetes & dyslipidemia who presented w/2-3 months of intermittent exertional angina, nitro responsive. Stroke in April. Exercise treadmill testing w/marked decrease from previous performance. There were no wall motion abnormalities or EKG changes, however, w/systomatic presentation referred for diagnostic angiography.
PROCEDURE: Right common femoral artery access was obtained using modified Seldinger technique of which a 6 French 11 cm sheath was placed w/o complication. JL4 & JR4 diagnostic catheters, as well as an IMA catheter were used to perform selective coronary angiography, left ventriculography & subclavian angiography. At the conclusion of the procedure, iliac angiography was performed & did not demonstrate any significant disease in the external iliac, common femoral artery, SFA or deep profunda w/appropriate placement at arteriotomy site sutible for percutaneous closure. An Angio-Seal devise was deployed w/o complication.
