## Abstract Retrieval of intravascular objects can be accomplished through snare retrieval. We report a case in which a patient presented with symptomatic in‐stent restenosis caused by a fractured aorto‐ostial sirolimus‐eluting stent in a saphenous vein graft. Because of the inability to selectivel
A 68-year-old man developed unstable angina 12 years following coronary artery bypass surgery. Angiography revealed an extensive area of severe stenosis and diminished distal flow in a right coronary artery vein bypass graft. Given the high distal embolism rate associated with conventional catheter-
