title: [Low-risk transfemoral selective coronary arteriography employing Sones catheters and total body heparinization (author's transl)].
abstract: Indications, results, and complications in 400 transfemoral selective coronary arteriograms are reported. After the first 100 examinations a sharp decline in serious complications and an increase in complete studies with opacifications of both coronary arteries and left ventricle was achieved. This was thought to be due not only to mounting experience but also to total body heparinization and transfemoral use of Sones catheters with torque control. According to our results transfemoral selective coronary arteriography is considered to be an indispensable examination which may be performed by experienced investigators without hesitation when indicated.
