Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of a Guiding Catheter Tip that Had Unexpectedly Become Detached Using a Two-Wire Technique
2016
Device dislodgement during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication.

Interventional cardiologists must be familiar with a safer and more reliable retrieval technique.
