title: Novel technique using the Outback LTD catheter for a common iliac artery occlusion.
abstract: We present a case of an unusual arterial--arterial anastamosis that resulted from an unsuccessful attempt at crossing a total occlusion of the common iliac artery. Subsequently, we were able to successful recanalize the artery using a modified technique with the Outback reentry catheter.
