Abstract:
Trans-ulnar access is a viable alternative approach by experienced operators when the radial and femoral arteries cannot be accessed or used to preserve the contralateral radial artery as possible vascular graft for coronary bypass surgery, hemodynamic monitoring, or shunt creation for hemodialysis. We report a challenging case of ipsilateral trans-ulnar recanalization of a chronic radial artery occlusion, which allowed us to perform a complex trans-ulnar PCI.
