Abstract

A 74-year-old man with prior coronary artery bypass surgery had a failing vein graft to the right coronary artery (RCA). He underwent retrograde chronic total occlusion recanalization of an ostial flush-occluded RCA facilitated by retrograde angioplasty at the aorto-ostial junction after failed retrograde electrocautery. The graft was then sacrificed. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
