Intracranial arterial stenosis stenting via radial artery approach: four cases report
Abstract
Objective To report 4 cases of intracranial arterial stenosis stenting via radial artery approach and summarize the experience of treatment. Methods and Results The clinical data and treatment process of 4 patients with ischemic stroke treated by intracranial arterial stenosis stenting via radial artery approach in The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were reviewed in 2022. The stenoses were located in the initial segment of left internal carotid artery (ICA), the initial segment of right vertebral artery (VA), the V4 segment of left VA, and the junction of V4 segment of left VA and the basilar artery, respectively. All the 4 patients underwent transradial approach stenting for ICA stenosis. The surgery was successful and the stenoses were recanalized. No adverse reactions were observed during and after the surgery. Conclusions Intracranial arterial stenosis stenting via radial artery approach is safe and effective in the treatment of ischemic stroke.
