Abstract
Delivery of coronary stents can be challenging, but the use of a second or 'buddy' wire helps the progression of equipment through tortuous and rigid vessels. We successfully positioned a coronary stent in a distal lesion, intentionally jailing the buddy wire during stent delivery. The jailed wire was then used to proceed further with proximal coronary stenting. We report 10 cases using either the jailed or the non-jailed wire for this modified 'buddy-in-jail' technique.
