  • Title: Stent graft implantation from distal radial access-A novel way to treat femoral access site complication during transcatheter aortic valve replacement: A case report.
    Author: Andréka J, Sasi V, Tóth GG, Ruzsa Z.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2024 Apr; 103(5):803-807. PubMed ID: 38415818.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, a case of an 82-year-old man who was admitted to our department with sever symptomatic degenerative aortic valve stenosis is presented and discussed. After all screening procedures, a successful transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement was performed, but the closure of the femoral access was unsuccessful due to suture-based device failure. We decided to perform a prolonged balloon dilatation and external compression at the bleeding site, but the bleeding did not stop; therefore, an iCover stent graft was implanted from distal radial artery access using slender technique. Following that, the bleeding was stopped, and the patient had an uneventful outcome.
