Abstract:
We reported a case of subclavian artery stenosis successfully treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). He suffered from left arm claudication and proximal subclavian artery stenosis. The stenosis and symptoms disappeared soon after PTA. No complications occurred. Patients with hemodynamically significant stenoses, symptoms and signs should be considered for PTA.
