Femoral approach has been used in all. The purpose of present study is to evaluate feasibility of the radial artery as an alternative approach for vertebral artery stenting (VAS) and basilar artery stenting (BAS). <jats:styled-content><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold><\/jats:styled-content> Forty\u2010seven patients (mean age 70 \u00b1 5, 38 male) underwent VAS and BAS. VAS was offered in 42 and BAS was offered in five patients. All the patients were symptomatic having stenosis greater than 75%. The target vertebral artery (VA) was cannulated using a 6Fr Internal Mammary Artery (IMA) guide catheter using ipsilateral radial approach. 0.014\u2033 floppy tip coronary guide wire was advanced and parked across the culprit stenosis. Pre dilation was done using a 2 \u00d7 12 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> or a 2.5 \u00d7 12 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> PTCA catheter and balloon mounted 2.5 \u00d7 13 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> or 3 \u00d7 13 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> bare metal stent was deployed using 8\u201310 atm pressure for all chronic lesions. For acute occlusions, the procedure was divided in two stages. In first stage, the lesion was dilated using PTCA catheter (1.5 \u00d7 12 mm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>) at 4\u20136 atm pressure just to establish the distal flow. After 24 hr, the patient was brought back and the culprit lesion was stented using 8\u201310 atm pressure. The procedure was staged to prevent hyperperfusion brain injury. <jats:styled-content><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold><\/jats:styled-content> VAS was successful in 42\/42 (100%) patients. BAS was successful in five out of five (100%) patients. However, three patients had transient periprocedural stroke which recovered completely within 6 hr and one patient developed intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) who died after 24 hr. Hyper perfusion brain injury was the cause for ICH. <jats:styled-content><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold><\/jats:styled-content> VAS and BAS using the transradial approach appear to be safe, technically feasible, and reproducible. Technical ease of cannulation of vertebral artery with IMA guide catheter using ipsilateral transradial approach should make it more convenient when compared with femoral approach.\u00a9 2009 Wiley\u2010Liss, Inc.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.22129","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,8]],"date-time":"2009-05-08T17:08:51Z","timestamp":1241802531000},"page":"925-931","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Transradial approach for stenting of vertebrobasilar stenosis: A Feasibility Study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"74","author":[{"given":"Tejas","family":"Patel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sanjay","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hemant","family":"Malhotra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rajnikant","family":"Radadia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leena","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sudhir","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/awg197"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra041544"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ana.20204"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.2004.049924"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/14651858.CD000516.pub2"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/STROKEAHA.106.471862"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1583\/1545-1550(2001)008<0558:AASITP>2.0.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.1228"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.0000128708.86762.d6"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","first-page":"363","article-title":"Percutaneous intervention for symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis using coronary stents","volume":"13","author":"Mukherjee D","year":"2001","journal-title":"J Invasive Cardiol"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.30.11.2483"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","first-page":"155","volume-title":"Patel's Atlas of Transradial Interventions: The Basics","author":"Patel T","year":"2007"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2006.02.027"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2004.04.034"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-8703(95)90034-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(98)00288-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.21049"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.20351"}],"container-title":["Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Fccd.22129","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ccd.22129","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,13]],"date-time":"2023-11-13T22:31:09Z","timestamp":1699914669000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ccd.22129"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,3]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2009,11,15]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ccd.22129"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ccd.22129","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1522-1946","1522-726X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1522-1946","type":"print"},{"value":"1522-726X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,3]]}}}
