Current techniques (transcatheter leaflet modification or snorkel stenting) cannot prevent obstruction in all cases.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>We created a transcatheter coronary artery bypass procedure, VECTOR (Ventriculo-Coronary Transcatheter Outward Navigation and Re-Entry), to bypass the proximal coronary artery with a covered stent graft. We tested the feasibility of creating a neo-ostium, 10 to 15 mm cephalad to the native, and bypassing the proximal coronary artery in swine. We established a proximal anastomosis using transcatheter electrosurgery to exit the aorta to the pericardium. The distal anastomosis was created using a guidewire to exit the proximal coronary artery and enter the pericardium. The points were connected, and a covered stent graft implanted to bypass the proximal vessel. Coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound were used to assess graft patency and expansion.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The VECTOR technique was developed in 11 and performed on the right coronary artery in 6 additional healthy swine. Proximal and distal anastomoses were successfully created, and up to 3 (total length 40 [35\u201345] mm) covered stent grafts were delivered to bypass the proximal vessel. There were no significant complications. All vessels had Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction III flow on completion.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Transcatheter coronary artery bypass with VECTOR is feasible in swine and may offer an effective solution to circumvent iatrogenic coronary artery obstruction following transcatheter aortic
