Feasibility, safety, and clinical efficacy of the combined application of the PercuSurge system and the Myoprotect SSR device was demonstrated in a patient with high‐risk anatomy undergoing saphenous vein graft intervention. This combined approach of coronary and myocardial protection may be considered in high‐risk aortocoronary vein graft interventions. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2001;54:342–345. © 2001 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
