## Abstract Objectives: The goal of this study was to assess the utility of topical lubrication to aid stent delivery in challenging anatomy and its effects on longβterm clinical outcome. Background: Failed stent delivery is encountered in up to 5% of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Meth
The Palmaz-Schatz stent delivery system (PS 153) and ''bare'' PS 204 stents are relatively high-profile, rigid devices that can be difficult to deliver to lesions beyond tortuous, irregular, or rigid proximal segments. Described herein is a method of mounting and shaping a Palmaz-Schatz stent on a l
The 5.0 French Palmaz-Schatz stent delivery system is a relatively bulky, stiff system which can be advanced only over a 0.014" wire. Although crossing failure is rare, advancement of the delivery system through tortuous, rigid vessels may be unsuccessful. We report on four consecutive cases in whic
