Abstract:
Transradial access has become popular and preferred approach in coronary interventions due to high success rate, low risk of complications and patients' comfort. However various anatomical variations and anomalies may pose technical challenge. Arteria lusoria is an uncommon condition which is technically challenging and may warrant cross-over to alternate access. We report a middle aged male presenting with acute coronary syndrome in which arteria lusoria was incidentally detected during right transradial coronary intervention.

Assessment of apical radial pulse
The A-R pulse assessment involves simultaneous evaluation of the apical and radial pulses. When the apical and radial pulse rates vary, this assessment helps identify a pulse deficit.
