title: Dual guiding catheters for saphenous venous graft protection during native coronary angioplasty.
abstract: The simultaneous use of two guiding catheters during angioplasty has been previously described for native coronary artery bifurcation lesions. We describe a case in which a dual guiding catheter, dual guidewire technique is used for angioplasty of a native vessel lesion spanning the anastomotic site of a sequential saphenous vein graft.
