| Abstract: | We report our initial experience using the Double Marker ACX II for intracoronary stent deployment in 22 patients, 10 of whom were elective stents and 12 of whom were stented for complications following failed coronary angioplasty. The overall success rate was 95 percent. This dilatation catheter offers advantages which include accurate stent deployment with a double marker system, the option of using a delivery sheath, and the ability to deliver multiple stents with the same balloon catheter. |
