Abstract
The authors describe their technique of catheterization of the left ventricle in aortic stenosis by a femoral approach based on a newly designed double‐curved catheter. The method has been used successfully in 87 of 100 consecutive cases. The advantages and drawbacks of the method are discussed.Keywords
