Learn from my pitfalls: Severe iliofemoral tortuosity during a MitraClip case. Right iliac: the guide wouldn’t cross over Bayliss wire then Amplatz Super Stiff. Tried the left side instead, very tortuous too. 24F DrySeal went through fine, but the guide still wouldn’t follow. Went back to the right, swapped for a Lunderquist wire. Left the DrySeal sitting in the left iliac/IVC to help straighten things out. Right before pushing the guide through, pulled the DrySeal back to the left iliac and it finally advanced. Lesson: in tortuous vessels before you think about switching to the other side, don’t stop at one stiff wire. Escalate: Bayliss, Amplatz Super Stiff, Safari, Lunderquist, Meier. The theory of a contralateral sheath straightening the IVC might be helpful too. Another idea is to put a 28 F dry-seal then advance the mitraclip through it? Curious to hear how others have handled similar tortuosity?
