  1. 5F TRI IN LMCAKaram Souibrion behalf of the Interventional cardiology departmentUniversity Hospital of Caen, France • INTRODUCTION • 5F TRI is safe and feasible for PCI and direct stenting. • Need for large diameter stents, low back-up… can be considered as severe limitations • In routine practice some tip and tricks can help to overcome these limitations Case report • Non ST ACS 67 year-old dyslipidemic patient • Treated with GpIIb/IIIa inhibitors • 5F JL4 guiding catheter (Launcher form Medtronic) • Revealing ulcerous stenosis in a 5mm caliber LMCA and 2 other significant narrowings in proximal and mid LAD

  2. What to do ? • CABG? • PCI? - switch to femoral? - switch to 6F? 7F? - direct stenting? - drug eluting stent?

  3. Maintained guiding 5F JL4 • Direct LMCA stenting (Express 5mmx16mm) • Difficulties to progress the following stents in LAD - Stop procedure? -Switch 6F? - Any other trick?

  4. Buddy wire technique for stent placement • Buddy Wire (parallel wire) (Choice guidewires 0.014 ’’) • Successfull stent placement and deployement in the 2 LAD stenosis (Motion MV3.5x13mm and 3x13mm)

  5. PCI using 5F Radial access can routinely be performed • 5mm stents in selected cases Can be considered • Deep catheter intubation is frequently required for direct stenting • Buddy wire technique avoids switching to larger catheters
