Real life video demonstration on how to get left Snuffbox distal radial access #ldtra #radialfirst #snuffbox. Two ways: cross sectional (traditional) vs longitudinal (shown here in video). Most times cross sectional is enough but this works well for tortuous arteries.

Left PA gram showing a rare type of anomalous pulmonary vein return (of only the upper lobe lung blood) to the SVC! This was suspected based on right sided chamber dilations and confirmed by full shunt run (SVC sat is 70% above the shunt and 89% below)

Young patient with IVDU who is bacteremic/febrile for two straight weeks, throwing CVAs and TIAs with large vegetation on his mitral valve. Tried all antibiotics known to man, not working. Not a surgical candidate due to continuing IVDU and recent stroke. Successful Angiovac.

Very large, mobile mass on the mitral valve in a patient with an embolic stroke. Hx of SLE; no signs of infection. Already on AC for afib. Successful AngioVac done. Collecting more data on this; will this technology become standard of care for diagnosis/treatment of such cases?

70 y/o with NICMP, afib on eliquis presents with showering all over (black toes,.. etc), with very large LAA/LA mass. Successful AlphaVac (1st in the state of MI of using AlphaVac for left heart). Prohibitive groin thus AlphaVac. Alpha vs angiovac for left heart? Thoughts?

Another HUGE vegetation; persistent bacteremia (MSSA) for a week now, large R sided CVA in a young pt (no IVDU, really no PMH), no clear source. CTS turndown. Successful AlphaVac. We have used AlphaVac successfully in three cases with great outcomes (largest experience in US)

Young patient with persistent MRSA bacteremia (skin source) despite multiple Abx; showering all over the place. Large mitral valve vegetation extracted with AngioVac and bilateral sentinel protection. This off label technology can be very helpful in select cases.

Was called to help snare out an unstable Micra. Put in ONO upfront. Snared the distal end but slipped and was flying. Snared it sideways this time but ONO to the rescue; it realigned really nicely and was able to take it out.

We are now facing interesting scenarios we did face before. Older pt who had SMVR followed by VinV TMVR several years ago now again has severe MS from degenerated valve. A VinVinV TMVR was done successfully with complete resolution of sxs. How many can we fit in there!!

NSTEMI with multiple episodes of VT found to have this nasty LCx lesion with a horrible angle. Tried everything (all kinds of MCs, Angeled ones; all crazy wire shapes, double lumen MCs, blocking balloon,.. etc) and can not get in. Hairpin reverse wiring technique to the rescue!!

A case of dynamic mitral regurgitation. A patient with severe exertional symptoms who was sent to us for second opinion as no reason was found for her symptoms. Super fellow @George_Yaziji and super imager @kehdimic made the diagnosis! @SparrowHealth @PedroMDMSc @adnanalkhouli
