Assessment of acute injuries and chronic intimal thickening of the radial artery after transradial coronary intervention by optical coherence tomography.
AIMS Transradial coronary intervention (TRI) introduces a trauma to the radial artery (RA), possibly influencing quality as a bypass conduit if subsequently used. We sought to determine the acute and chronic effects of TRI on the RA by optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS AND RESULTS Immediately after TRI completion, 73 RAs in 69 patients were examined. The sheath was pulled back 2 cm ...
متن کاملSuccessful transradial percutaneous coronary intervention with radial artery anomaly.
The transradial approach as an access for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been widely adopted. However, anatomical variations and stenoses may pose significant challenges to the operator. We report a case of successful transradial PCI in a patient with a complete radioulnar loop.
متن کاملInfluence of Puncture Site on Radial Artery Occlusion After Transradial Coronary Intervention
BACKGROUND The risk of radial artery occlusion (RAO) needs particular attention in transradial intervention (TRI). Therefore, reducing vascular occlusion has an important clinical significance. The aim of this study was to determine the appropriate puncture site during TRI through comparing the occurrence of RAO between the different puncture sites to reduce the occurrence of RAO after TRI. M...
متن کاملAdvances in Interventional Cardiology Radial Artery Patency After Transradial Catheterization
The transradial approach to cardiac catheterization has many advantages over the transfemoral approach and is increasingly being used for both diagnostic coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The technique is associated with fewer vascular access complications1–3 and has been shown to reduce major bleeding when compared with the femoral approach.4 Patients prefer th...
متن کاملDelayed Sudden Radial Artery Rupture After Left Transradial Coronary Catheterization
Local complications at the radial access site are not frequent, hence its large diffusion as the preferred access route for endovascular procedures. However, in a time of fast widespreading, better comprehension of all potential complications becomes critical to facilitate their early recognition and the most appropriate treatment. In this case report, we present for the first time a case of su...
