title: Case report: A new guidewire for coronary rotational ablation.
abstract: We report three cases using a new guidewire designed for coronary rotational ablation. The tips are .014 in diameter and available in different degrees of flexibility. The improved torquability of these guidewires may improve the success rate of coronary rotablation in select cases.
