Castriz et al. (1993) conducted a case report in Complex PTCA (n=4). Kissing balloon technique with single guiding catheter and dual wire rapid exchange system was evaluated. A variation of the kissing balloon technique using a single guiding catheter and two over-the-wire monorail balloon catheters was successfully utilized in four cases of complex PTCA.
