Serial sampling from the coronary sinus is an attractive technique for drawing blood samples to be used in the characterization of procoagulant activity during coronary interventions. We have developed a modlfied Simmons catheter for rapid cannuiation of the coronary sinus from the femoral approach.
## Abstract A technique of cannulation of the anterior interventricular vein (AIV) selectively, along with selective cannulation of the coronary sinus, is described. The technique was successful in 61 of 82 patients (76%) in whom it was attempted. There were no serious complications. The technique
Inadvertent aortosaphenous veln graft-coronary vein anastomosis during coronary bypass surgery is an uncommon complication. We describe a case of aortosaphenous vein side-toside anastomosis to an obtuse marginal vein resulting in a large arteriovenous fistula and elective closure, using embolization
