Abstract
Successful closed transatrial coronary sinus cannulation is dependent on a proper catheter insertion site and proper catheter direction. Accurate anatomic landmarks are described to provide a reproducible cannulation site and catheter direction. This results in consistent successful cannulation of the coronary sinus.
