Abstract
We report a preliminary case of successful recanalization of a sapheno us vein graft using a novel thrombectomy device AngioJet(R) catheter. The case demonstrates that the AngioJet catheter is a simple and safe tool for the clinical application. The device may play a useful role i n the treatment of thrombotic lesions.
