  • Title: [Translumbar coronary angiography and aortography in a patient with Takayasu's arteritis].
    Author: Tovar Blanco S, Ernesto Marenco R, Peña Duque MA, Luna Guerra J, Vázquez Sánchez J, Martínez Ríos MA.
    Journal: Arch Inst Cardiol Mex; 1999; 69(2):149-52. PubMed ID: 10478294.
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction by Dos Santos in 1929, arterial angiography by translumbar percutaneous approach has suffered some transformations. Nowadays it has been replaced by other percutaneous approaches and it is indicated only when these routes of access have failed due to aortoiliac or subclavian arteries obstruction. This report presents a patient with Takayasu's Arteritis with severe peripheral arterial obstruction and unstable angina, who underwent coronary arteriography and aortography by translumbar approach. A review of this technique is made.
