Access strategies for peripheral arterial intervention.

چکیده

An operator's ability to determine the optimal vascular access strategy for patients undergoing peripheral endovascular intervention is critical to maximizing procedural safety and success. Individualizing an approach to access requires careful planning, and is contingent upon a solid general knowledge of normal and abnormal vascular anatomy, as well as the particulars of each patient's history, physical examination, and non-invasive test results. An awareness of the technical nuances, relative safety, and indications for obtaining percutaneous arterial access at all potential sites is essential. Available means for approaching lower extremity arterial disease include the retrograde and antegrade common femoral approaches, the contralateral crossover technique, upper extremity approaches from the radial, brachial, or axillary arteries, or occasionally retrograde access via the popliteal, dorsalis pedis, or tibial arteries. These techniques, as well as important considerations for approaching disease of the renal, subclavian, and carotid arteries are reviewed.

Successful Use of the MYNXGRIP Closure Device during Repeated Transbrachial Percutaneous Peripheral Intervention

The use of closure devices after transbrachial arterial puncture is still controversial. Here we report on a case where the MYNXGRIP (AccessClosure Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA) could be used successfully in a patient, who underwent percutaneous peripheral arterial intervention twice via transbrachial access.

Transulnar artery approach for percutaneous coronary intervention: an alternative route in a patient with challenging transfemoral access and hypoplastic radial artery.

Transradial coronary angiography and intervention has become a popular technique due to reduced local and bleeding complications, easier post-procedural care and patient preference. In certain patients, transradial access may not be possible due to various anatomical reasons. Usually, the transfemoral route is used for these patients. In a minority of patients, such as those with significant pe...

Surgical infrainguinal revascularization for peripheral arterial disease: factors affecting patency rate

Background: Peripheral arterial disease is a source of morbidity and mortality. Surgical vascular reconstruction is a treatment option but probability of failure and complications are important concerns. In this study, we evaluated outcome of surgical infrainguinal reconstruction and factors affecting graft patency for a period of one year. Methods: In this cohort study, 85 consecutive patie...

Thrombolytic Therapy for Arterial Disease

Pearls 1. Patient workup and evaluation is key to a successful intervention while limiting complications. In addition to physical exam and laboratory evaluation, review of prior imaging studies and surgical interventions is important to understanding the etiology of the occlusion and to guide therapy. 2. Use of arterial thrombolysis should be avoided in patients with evidence of irreversible li...
