A high-flow steerable microcatheter has been reported to be useful as a triaxial system. Moreover, the benefits of steerable microcatheters in acute-angle bifurcation vessel insertions and a compact coil-packing technique using intentional folding with a bendable catheter tip have been reported. However, research on the usefulness of a high-flow steerable catheter and 0.025-inch guidewire combination (steerable-wire) technique is lacking. Herein, we report a case of balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) via the femoral venous approach to illustrate the usefulness of the steerable-wire technique. The steerable-wire technique facilitates the selection of the wire into the target vessel. The steerable-wire can be used instead of the 0.035-inch guidewire, which is versatile as other devices can follow the steerable wire. |
