Figures & data

Figure 1 Transradial approach to a left proximal SFA total occlusion in a patient with a history of aorto-bifemoral bypass. A) Distal anastamosis site of bypass conduit to CFA and total occlusion of SFA at its ostium. B) Crosser CTO recanalization catheter™ (Flowcardia) successfully passing through proximal total occlusion. C) Balloon angioplasty of proximal SFA. D) Final result at the end of procedure.

Figure 2 Transradial approach to Leriche’s syndrome. A) Aortogram showing distal aorta total occlusion. B) Balloon angioplasty of left common iliac artery (CIA) following successful wire crossing. C) Catheter-directed thrombolysis of left CIA. D) Left CIA opacification following overnight infusion of tPA. E) Kissing balloon inflation of bilateral CIA. F) Successful restoration of inflow.
