Article Number: 17. Date of Publication: December 2021. | Journal: | CVIR Endovascular | Abstract: | This report describes a patient who presented with acute but transient right arm weakness and altered sensation secondary to severe stenosis of the left common carotid artery (CCA) origin. Endovascular stenting of the stenosed origin was achieved utilising a novel rendezvous technique through combined retrograde common carotid artery and anterograde transfemoral approaches. This technique has numerous potential advantages over traditional transfemoral endovascular and open retrograde common carotid artery approaches. It allows increased procedural control and success in traversing the stenosis and provides a smooth transition for the stent delivery catheter. An open cutdown procedure or open surgical technique is not required. Our patient recovered well from the procedure with no complications within the three-month follow up period.Copyright © 2021, The Author(s). | DOI: | http://monash.idm.oclc.org/login?url= http://monash.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/s42155-020-00194-3 |
