Angiography of right gastroepiploic artery for coronary artery bypass graft.
We describe the angiographic technique of grafting the right gastroepiploic artery to the coronary artery. With the femoral approach, our specially devised catheter was placed in the common hepatic artery or gastroduodenal artery. The gastroepiploic artery and graft to the coronary artery were visualized satisfactorily by manual injection of contrast media.
