Figure 1

Diagnostic coronary angiography in three standard projections. A: AP cranial view. B: LAO cranial view. C: RAO cranial view. All views show a highly tortuous mid-to-distal LAD with tight tandem lesions in the medial segment.

Stepwise navigation of a Suoh 03 wire through a tortuous LAD. A–F: Sequential advancement of the Suoh 03 wire shows safe progression through sharp angulations while minimizing trauma to the vessel wall.

PTCA and stenting of the mid-to-distal LAD segment. A–B: Pre-dilatation with balloon angioplasty. C–D: Deployment of two drug-eluting stents. E–F: Final post-dilatation to ensure optimal stent apposition.

Angiographic assessment of the concertina effect. A: After successful wiring, no concertina effect is visible with TIMI III flow. B: After PTCA, the vessel shows minimal concertina effect, still maintaining TIMI III flow.
