Knuckles are not just “big” or “small”. They behave differently and this position paper will help make you understand state-of-the-art dissection techniques !
A must-read for #CTO #PCI operators. 1-Start (XT or Gladius/Pilot 200), finish with MG 2- Rolling vs travelling knuckles 3-Redirect if explodes, can change wire to restart 4-Ok for retro knuckle to be bigger unlike antegrade one. #cardiotwitter #ACCFIT
