✦ Synopsis


This is a report of a new modification of the "kissing balloon"

technique for complex multivessel angioplasty. Based on a series of five consecutive cases, we describe a representative case in which a single guide catheter and two over-the-wire balloon catheters were utilized in association with a single inflation device. This approach could have significant advantages over the two-inflation-device approach, based primarily on its lower cost without compromise of the effectiveness and safety of the technique.
