Transradial approach to treat superficial femoral artery in-stent restenosis.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Transradial access reduces the incidence of access site complications of percutaneous revascularization procedures. However, in patients with peripheral vascular disease, the adoption of transradial approach for superficial femoral ... Read more...

CT of the ilio-femoral arteries using direct aortic contrast injection: proof of feasibility in patients screened towards percutaneous aortic valve replacement.

6 Aug 2009 PRINCIPLES: Transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a promising treatment modality for selected patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Peripheral access via the femoral and iliac artery is an important issue, limiting this ... Read more...

Computed tomographic angiography in proximal femoral focal deficiency.

30 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Because there is limited information concerning the vascular pattern and the role of vessels in patients with proximal femoral focal deficiency, the vascular supply of the lower extremities was studied systematically with use of computed ... Read more...
