DKDaigo KojimaYSYasuyoshi ShimadaKMKenya Miyoshi

Key Points

  • This research assesses the feasibility and safety of using an 8-Fr balloon guide catheter for carotid artery stenting via a transradial approach.
  • Evaluated technical feasibility of transradial carotid artery stenting
  • Assessed safety concerns related to device slippage
  • Monitored navigational challenges with catheter placement
  • Demonstrated the potential feasibility of the transradial approach
  • Noted safety challenges identifying device slippage
  • Showed promise for safer interventions in carotid artery stenting

Abstract

Objective: The use of an 8-French (Fr) balloon guide catheter (BGC) for carotid artery stenting (CAS) using a transradial approach (TRA) has been limited by the small size of the radial artery (RA) and anatomical challenges, including difficulties with catheter navigation and concerns regarding device slippage. This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility and safety of TRA-CAS using an 8-Fr BGC.
