"MINI-CATHETER" TECHNIQUE FOR FEMORAL RUN-OFF AND ABDOMINAL ARTERIOGRAPHY

IRVIN F. HAWKINS JR. M.D.

This communication describes a mini-catheter approach to abdominal and peripheral arterial run-off studies.

Our experience with 85 patients utilizing a No. 5 French teflon catheter has resulted in the following preliminary conclusions: (1) an ability to pass a catheter through severely stenotic areas of the femoral and iliac arteries previously found non-navigable with larger catheters; (2) no obstruction to the flow of contrast medium at the site of puncture or areas of severe stenosis at time of study; (3) it is speedily and atraumatically inserted; (4) no thromboses occurred in our series; and (5) it is a procedure easily transmitted to the beginning angiographer.
