Published: September 2004

Radial artery segment has been used as a coronary-coronary graft for single, distal lesion of the large left anterior descending coronary artery running well over the cardiac apex. In our opinion this technique may occasionally be an attractive approach for bypassing very distal lesions of large coronary arteries combined with regular arterial or venous grafting of the target artery if proximal stenosis is also present. The remnant of the radial artery can be used for grafting of another diseased artery (eg, the large first marginal branch of the circumflex artery in our case report).

Background: Venous outflow is the favored access for endovascular management of dialysis fistulas. However, transradial access (TRA) offers advantages in specific clinical scenarios. The study aims to compare the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of TRA and transvenous access (TVA) in the endovascular management of malfunctioning dialysis fistulas, addressing the existing gap in comprehensive literature.

This study compared the roles of extraparenchymal autonomic nervous system (ANS) control of cerebral blood flow (CBF) versus intraparenchymal cerebrovascular autoregulation in 487 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and 413 patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Vasomotion intensity of extraparenchymal and intraparenchymal vessels were quantified as the amplitude of oscillations of arterial blood pressure (ABP) and intracranial pressure (ICP) in the very low frequency range of 0.02-0.

Background: Transradial secondary access (TR-SA) may serve as an alternative to the traditional femoral secondary access (TF-SA) for pigtail placement in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of secondary access-related vascular complications after TR-SA or TF-SA in TAVR.

Methods: The PULSE (Plug or sUture based vascuLar cloSurE after TAVR) registry retrospectively evaluated data of 10,120 patients who underwent transfemoral TAVR at 10 heart centers from 2016 to 2021.
