Feasibility and Safety of Double-Wire Technique for Microcatheter Navigation Beyond Tortuous Internal Carotid Siphon: A Propensity Score-Matched Study
Although a 0.027-inch microcatheter is difficult to guide beyond a tortuous ICS to a distal internal carotid artery using only a single wire, the application of the DWT may allow the catheter to be guided without increased complications.
