Abstract

The retrograde approach is an effective therapeutic strategy for chronic total occlusion (CTO) intervention. In CTO cases, the retrograde approach from the opposite coronary artery is not always applicable. In certain left anterior descending (LAD) CTO cases, the distal LAD is filled from the septal channel where it is supplied by the proximal septal route. We report two LAD CTO cases of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) conducted with a wire from the proximal septal branch to the distal septal channel using the retrograde approach.

Cajal Bodies & Gems

Cajal bodies or coiled bodies are dense foci of coilin protein. Gemini of Cajal bodies, or gems, are microscopically similar to Cajal bodies. It is believed that Cajal bodies play important roles in RNA processing while gems assist the Cajal bodies. Find the latest research on Cajal bodies and gems here.
