What role should EBU catheters play in the interventional approach to anomalous right coronary arteries? A case series

In this descriptive series, the EBU catheter was successfully employed as a primary or rescue tool in a majority of select ARCA cases, with the highest success in Types A and B. These observations, while not comparative, suggest it is a viable option in the operator's arsenal for these challenging anatomies and warrant further prospective evaluation.

Abstract

In this descriptive series, the EBU catheter was successfully employed as a primary or rescue tool in a majority of select ARCA cases, with the highest success in Types A and B. These observations, while not comparative, suggest it is a viable option in the operator's arsenal for these challenging anatomies and warrant further prospective evaluation.
