Abstract:
Objective To discuss the skills and effects of several endovascular mechanical techniques for the recanalization of subclavian artery total occlusion. Methods Endovascular mechanical recanalization of subclavian artery total occlusion was performed in 32 patients with symptomatic subclavian artery total occlusion. The re-open rate and the therapeutic results were observed and analyzed. Results Several endovascular mechanical techniques, including percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, were employed in treating 32 patients with subclavian artery total occlusion. After the procedure, the ischemic 8ymptoms of posterior circulation and/or upper extremity were markedly relieved. Conclusion It is safe and feasible using appropriate endovascular mechanical technique for re-canalizing the occluded subclavian artery.
