ABSTRACT
Thrombus load and its subsequent distal embolization causing slow flow makes primary angioplasty a challenging task. Although data is scanty, these complications may be potentially mitigated by use of distal protection devices. We report 6 cases of PercuSurge distal protection device-assisted primary angioplasty. All lesions were stented with patients achieving brisk TIMI 3 flow; none of the patients had in-hospital major adverse cardiac events. The strategy of PercuSurge Guardwire-assisted primary angioplasty seems encouraging in improving successful outcome in this subset of patients.
