Advanced Techniques in Retroflex Circumflex Lesions

What are the critical steps for delivering a stent in tortuous, calcified coronary lesions, and how do you adapt when the anatomy fights back? This week on the BackTable Cardiology Podcast, Dr. Hady Lichaa hosts interventional cardiologist Dr. Sripal Bangalore, director of the Cath Lab and CTO program at Bellevue Hospital, to discuss planning and performing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Their conversation centers on advanced strategies for retroflex circumflex lesions approached via right radial access, with a focus on careful angiogram review, managing severe tortuosity, and post-procedure antithrombotic regimens.
