Transradial Carotid Intervention: Technology on the Rise, Single-center Retrospective Review

This study aimed to compare the early results of transradial carotid angioplasty and stent placement (TR-CAS) transfemoral artery (TF-CAS) in both asymptomatic symptomatic patients from 2020 2023. During review period, 137 underwent with embolic protection (CAS) percutaneously, 92 undergoing trans femoral TF-CAS 45 TR-CAS. There were significantly more group vs The showed that procedures had similar technical success rates procedural times. However, who TR-CAS lower access site complications compared those TF-CAS. four strokes, three transient ischemic attacks, one death cohort attack stroke NSTEMI cohort, consistent presence group. These findings suggest is a safe effective alternative for treatment stenosis, added benefits reduced complications, possibly costs. Further investigation prospective randomization would need performed confirm these preliminary findings.
