Abstract:
:Diffuse coronary artery disease is frequently untreatable by coronary artery bypass or angioplasty. Many such "no-option" patients have been subjects for trials of angiogenesis using growth factor manipulation or laser injury. We think these novel revascularization strategies are limited by insufficient inflow to putative areas of new microvasculature and thus seek a more mechanical solution. We report the use of a catheter-based system for arterializing the adjacent anterior cardiac vein in a patient with chronic total occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery. A composite catheter system (phased-array ultrasound imaging system mounted on a catheter with extendable nitinol needle) was used to deliver an exchange-length intracoronary guidewire from the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery into the parallel anterior interventricular vein. Using standard angioplasty techniques, a fistula was then constructed from the proximal artery to the coronary vein using a self-expanding connector. The proximal vein was blocked with a novel self-expanding "blocker," thus precluding "steal" through the coronary sinus and forcing retroperfusion of the anterior wall. The procedure was completed without complication, and a follow-up angiogram at 3 months confirmed continued patency of the arteriovenous connection. This patient, who had severe angina before the procedure, has been asymptomatic for 12 months. Percutaneous in situ venous arterialization may be an effective therapy for diffuse, "untreatable" coronary disease by supplying a robust inflow of arterialized blood via retroperfusion to severely ischemic myocardium.
