Transradial endovascular treatment of severe common femoral artery stenosis

J Invasive Cardiol. 2013 Nov;25(11):616-9.

Abstract

Endovascular treatment of peripheral artery disease is challenged by limited access options when the disease involves the common femoral artery. We described a case of transradial intervention of severe common femoral artery stenosis with orbital atherectomy and discuss the technique, advantages, and limitations.
