Radial Artery Perforation Management with Internal Tamponade using a Long Vascular Sheath
نویسندگان
چکیده
Radial artery access has rare but significant vascular complications that can occur even in high volume centers. We present a case of a 60-year-old man with perforation of a high takeoff radial artery due to catheter manipulation. A combination of manual external pressure of the axillary artery combined with internal tamponade effect from a 45 cm hydrophilic sheath was used with no immediate or late neurovascular complications. As radial technique becomes more popular, operators should be aware of potential management options. The present case illustrates one such complication and management strategy.

Management of an iatrogenic radial artery perforation: a case report.
A 73-year-old female patient underwent transradial coronary angiography with stable angina and signs of significant myocardial ischemia revealed by exercise stress test. After insertion of a 6F radial sheath into the right radial artery and intra-arterial administration of heparin plus verapamil, the hydrophilic guidewire could not be advanced under fluoroscopic guidance. Immediately afterwards...
متن کاملUse of an Endograft from the External to the Internal Iliac Artery to Treat a Perforation of the Common Iliac Artery
An increase in the number of endovascular procedures has let to a concomitant increase in iatrogenic arterial lesions such as catheter-induced arterial perforation or vessel rupture after PTA. The traditional way of treating these problems is by way of an open surgical approach, balloon tamponade, insertion of uncovered stents or covering the rupture site with an endograft. The present case des...

OBJECTIVES Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of routine transradial approach (TRA) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions using the sheathless technique with standard guiding catheters. BACKGROUND Transradial approach PCI was applied for CTO lesions. A major limitation of TRA CTO PCI is the inability to use large guiding catheters b...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the new 5 Fr Glidesheath Slender (GSS). The transradial (TR) approach has become popular because of several advantages, such as a reduced rate of vascular access site complications. However, because the radial artery is narrow, a limitation of TR access is the potential for artery spasm or occlusion. Studies of radial artery si...
متن کاملRetention and fracture of a hydrophilic radial artery sheath due to severe spasm
Worldwide, there is increasing interest in transradial intervention, as it appears safer, more cost-effective and is the preferred access route for patients over transfemoral intervention. The favorable neuroanatomical relationships of the radial artery mean that access-site complications are extremely rare. However, radial access-site complications do occur and we report a case of radial arter...
