Abstract

Coronary artery dissection is an infrequent, but potentially fatal, complication of coronary arteriography with an incidence ranging from 0.02 to 0.34%.^1-3 Soft-tipped catheters were developed to reduce this risk. In vitro and in vivo studies have suggested that soft-tipped catheters are less traumatic to the arterial wall than conventional catheters.^4,5 To determine the clinical importance of these findings, the incidence of coronary artery dissection associated with both soft-tipped catheters and conventional catheters was compared in a 10-year retrospective study.
