Use of the frontrunner catheter to cross a chronic total occlusion of the left subclavian artery.
Crossing a subclavian artery chronic total occlusion may be challenging. We report the treatment of such an occlusion in a patient with a patent left internal mammary graft to the left anterior descending artery, who presented with progressive angina. Several attempts to cross the occlusion, both antegrade and retrograde, with various guidewires failed. The lesion was successfully crossed anteg...
متن کاملSuccessful Carotid Stenting for Chronic Total Occlusion of the Internal Carotid Artery
A 64-year-old man complaining of pulsatile headache was admitted. Imaging studies revealed a near-total occlusion of the right proximal internal carotid artery (ICA) with slow antegrade flow into the distal ICA. Right cerebral flow was supplied by collateral flow through the posterior communicating and ophthalmic arteries. He was successfully treated by carotid artery stenting. No new neurologi...
متن کاملPulsatile tinnitus: a symptom of chronic subclavian artery occlusion.
We report the unusual case of pulsatile tinnitus caused by muscular branches of the occipital artery, which developed to supply the distal vertebral artery after subclavian artery occlusion. Anatomical findings and options of endovascular treatment are discussed. To our knowledge, subclavian artery occlusion causing an objective tinnitus has not been reported.
متن کاملNovel Use of the “Contra Catheter” (CC) In Proximal Iliac Artery Chronic Total Occlusion (PICTO) Recanalization
Proximal Iliac Artery chronic total occlusions (PICTOs) are complex peripheral interventions that typically require an arm approach for adequate leverage. These are typically TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus [1] (TASC) Type C/ D lesions that have traditionally treated by Aorto-bifemoral surgery [2] but are being increasingly approached by endovascular methods [3,4]. The endovascular approa...
متن کاملChronic total left main coronary artery occlusion.
A 65 year old man, smoker, presented with a history of exertional shortness of breath over the last 4 months. He denied any chest discomfort. On examination jugular venous distension was noted with bilateral basal crackles. He got symptomatic relief after treatment with diuretics and nitrates. His echocardiogramme revealed global hypokinesia of left ventricle with severe mitral regurgitation. H...
