A case of transradial carotid stenting in a patient with total occlusion of distal abdominal aorta

Abstract
We report a case with severe carotid stenosis in which carotid stenting was performed via the radial artery due to total occlusion of distal abdominal aorta. The radial approach offers a potential alternative in cases in which the femoral approach is problematic. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2002;56:243–245.
