Sheathless guiding catheter from a femoral approach for complex percutaneous coronary interventions -An unusual solution for an often-encountered problem.

ABSTRACT: Sheathless guiding catheters are a valuable tool in the catheterization labor and may assist the operator when dealing with heavily calcified and tortuous vessels.
