Abstract
Coil occlusion of Blalock-Taussig shunts has been associated with a high rate of device embolization. We describe a technique consisting of transvenous snaring and exteriorization of a guidewire advanced through a modified left Blalock-Taussig shunt, allowing distal shunt flow control and successful coil occlusion of the shunt. Cathet. Cardiovasc. Intervent. 49:51-54, 2000.
