Journal ArticleDOI

Crossing the Carotid Siphon: Techniques to Facilitate Distal Access in Tortuous Anatomy: 2-Dimensional Operative Video.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate two ways in which this may be accomplished: a larger diameter microcatheter, such as the AXS Offset catheter (Stryker, Kalamazoo, Michigan), to increase support for the distal access catheter, while the second uses a buddy wire technique to accomplish this increased support.
MonographDOI
