چکیده
Permanent ischemic injury of the hand after radial artery cannulation is rare, but several cases of thromboembolism after the cannulation leading to amputation of affected limb or digits have been reported. A 48-yr-old man undergoing spine surgery showed normal modified Allen's test and had no preoperative vascular disease. We inserted 20-G radial artery catheter for the continuous monitoring of the blood flow and serial blood sampling. There was no specific event during the operation and the catheter was removed immediately after the operation. The signs and symptoms of the circulatory impairment of the radial artery developed four days after the operation and aggravated thereafter. Through the angiographic study, we found the total occlusion of the radial artery and some of its branches. After an emergent surgical exploration of the radial artery for removal of the thrombus and vein graft for the defect of the artery on the 8th postoperative day, the ischemic signs and symptoms disappeared and the radial pulse was restored.

Hand ischemia associated with profound hypotension and radial artery catheterization in a pediatric patient: a case report.
Direct arterial blood pressure monitoring via the radial artery is a relatively common method employed during the perioperative period. Complications attributed to radial artery catheterization are extremely rare but can include thrombosis, ischemia, infection, and aneurysm formation at the site of catheter insertion. This report describes an episode of hand ischemia in a pediatric patient. The...
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...
