Key result
Intravascular ultrasound guidance from the false lumen successfully navigated a second guide wire into the true lumen, enabling successful stenting of a spontaneous coronary artery dissection lesion.

May aid wire navigation in complex SCAD PCI; hypothesis-generating case report leaves open need for prospective validation.
Case Report (n=1)
IVUS guidance from the false lumen may be a promising technique for navigating a guide wire into the true lumen during PCI for spontaneous coronary artery dissection.
Kageyama et al. (2016) conducted a case report in Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) (n=1). Percutaneous Coronary Intervention under Intravascular Ultrasound Guidance was evaluated. Intravascular ultrasound guidance from the false lumen successfully navigated a second guide wire into the true lumen, enabling successful stenting of a spontaneous coronary artery dissection lesion.
