We report ten successful experiments o f transvenous destruction of the His bundle by laser radiation. An endoscope coupled with a special laser catheter was introduced through the jugular vein into the right atrium of dogs. The tip of thc laser catheter was positioned in front of A-V conduction sys
## Abstract The possibility of revascularizing the myocardium with highβenergy laser was investigated based on the finding that the laser beam could produce small channels in the tissue of the myocardium that were devoid of debris and scarring. The technique was investigated in 4 groups of 6 mongre
