Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review our multi-institutional experience with endovascular therapy for right subclavian artery occlusive disease and to evaluate the long-term outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated all patients with right subclavian artery stenosis and occlusive disease who underwent endovascular therapy between March 2014 and September 2022 at two institutions. Patient baseline demographics, lesion characteristics, treatment strategies, and in-hospital and follow-up outcomes were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Between March 2014 and September 2022, 73 patients underwent endovascular treatment at the two institutions. The dominant cause of lesions in this cohort was atherosclerosis. Three different types of lesions were summarized, and the corresponding endovascular strategies were performed. 66 patients (90.4%) underwent successful endovascular treatment, and 62 patients (84.9%) underwent balloon-expandable stent deployment. The mean perioperative in-hospital stay was 4.0 days (range, 3-6 days). Two patients died due to myocardial infarction, and one died of cerebral hemorrhage resulting from a traffic accident within 30 days of the intervention. The median follow-up time was 31.6 months (range, 12-96 months). No complications, including death, stroke, stent fractures, or migration, were noted in any patient during the follow-up period. The overall complication rate was 7/73 (9.6%), and 5/7 (6.9%) of the complications required reintervention. CONCLUSIONS Endovascular treatment of right subclavian artery lesions is safe, effective, and technically achievable. The reasonable use of balloon-expandable stents can achieve satisfactory outcomes with accurate orientation and promising patency.

Abstract
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a disease that causes inflammation and stenosis of medium to large blood vessels. We report a case of a 50-year-old female patient with newly developed hypertension, syncope, and claudication of the extremities. Total occlusion of the left subclavian artery at the origin was found and significant stenosis of the right common iliac artery was revealed by hemodynamic analysis. She was successfully treated with percutaneous angioplasty for multiple peripheral arterial diseases and was finally diagnosed with TA. In consultation with a rheumatologist, medical treatment for TA was initiated, the patient's hypertension disappeared, and her claudication symptoms improved.

Transradial dual-balloon protection system for subclavian artery stenting: "Balloon Switching" technique and literature review. Eur J Radiol 2021; 143:109907. [PMID: 34438329 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2021.109907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2021] [Revised: 07/26/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Endovascular treatment for subclavian artery (SA) occlusive disease is well established; however, a potential risk remains for posterior circulation embolism, which can be life threatening. To reduce the risk of vertebral artery (VA) embolism, we have devised a transradial dual-balloon protection system referred to as the balloon switching technique. Herein, we describe a patient with left SA stenosis who successfully underwent SA stenting using the balloon switching technique. Case presentation A 79-year-old woman with left arm claudication was diagnosed with left subclavian steal syndrome due to severe stenosis of the proximal left SA. Endovascular revascularization using the balloon switching technique was employed. To obtain VA embolic protection during device advancement through the SA lesion, an 8F balloon-guiding catheter was inflated in the left SA at the level of the VA takeoff using the left transradial sheathless approach. A balloon-expandable stent was inflated in the SA lesion, followed by deflation of the balloon-guiding catheter. The stagnant left VA flow was flushed away toward the distal left SA. Following reinflation of the balloon-guiding catheter, the stent delivery system was deflated and removed. Floating debris in the SA proximal to the balloon-guiding catheter was adequately aspirated, followed by deflation of the balloon-guiding catheter. Left SA angiography showed successful revascularization, and postprocedural neuroimaging showed no evidence of ischemic stroke. CONCLUSIONS The balloon switching technique reduces the risk of VA embolism during left SA stenting via the transradial access. This method is a useful therapeutic option for patients with left SA occlusive disease.

Endovascular Therapy for the Steal Phenomenon due to the Innominate Artery Severe Stenosis and Bilateral Internal Carotid Artery Severe Stenosis. World Neurosurg 2017; 105:1040.e1-1040.e5. [PMID: 28684367 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2017.06.154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2017] [Revised: 06/22/2017] [Accepted: 06/24/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptomatic innominate artery stenosis presenting as hemodynamic bilateral cerebral ischemia is uncommon. We present a rare case of the severe stenosis of the origin of an innominate artery and severe stenosis of bilateral internal carotid artery that induced hemodynamic cerebral ischemia after ipsilateral axillary artery-bilateral femoral artery bypass and was treated with stent replacement of the innominate artery and right internal carotid artery. CASE REPORT A 64-year-old woman who previously had undergone right axillary artery-bilateral femoral artery anastomosis for abdominal aorta high obstruction had been suffering from chronic dizziness and so visited our department. Findings of the examination included the severe stenosis of the origin of an innominate artery and severe stenosis of bilateral internal carotid artery, causing hemodynamic cerebral ischemia. She underwent stent replacement of the innominate artery and right carotid artery stenting via a right transbrachial approach. Her symptoms were relieved postoperatively. DISCUSSION For the sake of improving the hemodynamic cerebral ischemia, we performed stent replacement for innominate artery stenosis and right carotid artery stenting. Endovascular treatment of subclavian and innominate artery disease is a safe procedure. In addition, for the protection of thromboembolic migration, we performed balloon protection of the external carotid artery and filter protection of the internal carotid artery. CONCLUSIONS Stent replacement for these lesions can be performed safely with the right approach and protection methods, even when the only accessible route is the right brachial artery.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive lesions of the subclavian artery (SCA) often result in subclavian steal syndrome, which leads to arm claudication, transient cerebral ischemia, and other serious complications. The lesions are classified as stenosis and occlusion, according to the degree of obstruction. Unlike totally occlusive lesions, including ostial occlusions, stenotic lesions have an excellent technical success rate. In the present study, ostial occlusions were classified into 4 types according to their angiographic appearance. A total of 8 patients (6 male, 2 female) with SCA occlusions were treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting over a 4-year period. Mean patient age was 65.6 years (range, 60-72 years). In total, 9 self-expanding and 1 balloon-expandable stent were implanted at the ostia of the SCA in 7 of the patients. One female patient did not undergo stenting. Bleeding at the access site was noted in 2 patients and was controlled by gauze pressure. The patient that did not undergo stenting was lost to follow-up with symptoms of a transient ischemic attack at 3 months. The mean follow-up time for the remaining 7 patients was 15.7 months (range, 1-36 months). No ischemic symptoms, neointimal hyperplasia, or restenosis was observed in these patients. The transfemoral artery operation approach is preferred for rat-tail and peak type occlusions, whereas the dual approach involving both femoral and radial arteries is preferred for hilly and plain type occlusions. The angiographic morphology typing used in the present study may serve as a reference to decide upon the interventional operation strategy to be used for improving the technical success rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify independent predictors of cardiovascular events among patients with subclavian artery stenosis. METHODS Two hundred eighteen consecutive patients with subclavian artery stenosis referred to angioplasty were examined for coexistent coronary, renal, or lower extremity artery stenosis of 50% or greater. Initial carotid intima-media thickness and internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis were assessed. Intima-media thickness was reassessed in 108 randomly chosen patients to evaluate the change over time. The incidence of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke, and symptomatic lesion progression was recorded. RESULTS The patients included 116 men and 102 women (mean age ± SD, 62.1 ± 8.4 years). Isolated subclavian artery stenosis and involvement of 1, 2, and 3 or 4 other territories with stenosis of 50% or greater were found in 46 (21.1%), 83 (38.1%), 55 (25.2%), and 34 (15.6%) patients, respectively. Internal carotid artery stenosis of 50% or greater (relative risk [RR], 1.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.39-1.70; P < .001) and initial intima-media thickness (RR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.05-1.28; P = .005) were identified as independent markers of multiterritory atherosclerosis. The optimal intima-media thickness cutoff for atherosclerosis extent was 1.3 mm (sensitivity, 75.6%; specificity, 76.1%). During follow-up of 57 ± 35 months, cardiovascular death, MI, and ischemic stroke occurred in 29 patients (13.3%). Those patients had significantly higher intima-media thickness progression (+0.199 ± 0.57 versus +0.008 ± 0.26 mm; P = .039) and more widespread initial atherosclerosis (mean territories, 1.8 ± 1.1 versus 1.3 ± 1.1; P = .042). Independent predictors of cardiovascular death, MI, ischemic stroke, and lesion progression were coronary artery disease (RR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.10-1.58; P = .003) and intima-media thickness progression (RR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.02-1.46; P = .033; sensitivity, 75.0%; specificity, 61.8%). CONCLUSIONS In patients with symptomatic subclavian artery stenosis, baseline carotid intima-media thickness and ICA stenosis of 50% or greater are associated with multiterritory atherosclerosis, whereas intima-media thickness progression is associated with the risk of cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic subclavian artery stenosis (SAS) accompanied with other craniocervical artery stenosis (OCAS) is not uncommon in practice. We sought to investigate the safety and efficacy of endovascular stenting for SAS in patients with OCAS. Between January 2004 and February 2012, 71 consecutive atherosclerotic SAS patients who underwent primary stenting in our medical center were included. The enrolled patients were divided into combined-SAS group (n = 51) and solitary-SAS group (n = 20) depending on the presence or absence of OCAS. Data of demographics, procedure, and the followed-up were retrieved and analyzed. The technical success rate was 95.8%; the clinical success rate was 90.1%. There was no catheter-related major stroke or death. The immediate outcomes had no statistical difference between groups. During a mean of 27 ± 20 months (range 2-88 months) followed-up, 7 (10.3%) restenosis and 12 (17.6%) clinical events were identified. The primary patency rate was 95.3, 84.9 and 84.9% at 12, 24 months, and final followed-up respectively, which had no statistical difference between groups (odds ratio (OR), 2.60; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.54-12.53; P = 0.232). The overall clinical event-free survival rate was 93.5, 86.2 and 54.6%, respectively, where the result of combined-SAS group was inferior to that of the solitary-SAS group (OR, 3.34; 95% CI, 1.02-11.00; P = 0.047). Endovascular stenting was safe and feasible for atherosclerotic SAS in patients with OCAS, although the combined OCAS may have a significant influence on the long-term outcome. Further studies are warrant to investigate the effects of revascularization for multiple craniocervical artery stenoses on the cerebral hemodynamics and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
A 56-year-old female presented with pain in her bilateral upper extremities. Angiogram demonstrated occlusion of her left subclavian and innominate arteries (IAs). The patient’s left subclavian occlusion was successfully treated with percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy, angioplasty, and stenting. One month later, endovascular revascularization of the IA was performed. Initially the lesion could not be directly transversed from neither an antegrade nor a retrograde approach. Wires were passed from the brachial and femoral arteries into the right common carotid artery where the femoral wire was snared and brought out through the right brachial access. Over this through-and-through wire access, angioplasty and stenting of the IA was performed with an excellent angiographic result. In follow-up, the patient remained free of upper extremity symptoms. Occlusive lesions of the aortic arch vessels can be successfully managed with antegrade and retrograde endovascular techniques.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Subclavian steal phenomenon due to proximal subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion is not un-common but often remains asymptomatic. CASE REPORT We describe the case of a 66-year-old man with end-stage renal disease hemodialysed through a brachio-brachial loop graft of the left forearm. Echo-Doppler precerebral examination showed a high reversed flow of 570 ml/min in the ipsilateral vertebral artery. After successful endovascular recanalization of the subclavian artery, access blood flow increased and vertebral flow decreased to 30 ml/min. Complete neurological examination was normal both before and after endovascular treatment. DISCUSSION This case demonstrates how high a subclavian steal can be without causing symptoms and how well precerbral and cerebral circulation can adapt to hemodynamic changes.

Abstract
Abstract
OBJECTIVE
Atherosclerotic stenosis or obstruction of the innominate artery is rare. Traditional surgical management is a technically demanding intervention with acceptable, but not negligible, rates of morbidity and mortality. Endovascular approaches to supraaortic lesions have been successful and are now the preferred treatment for stenoses of the brachiocephalic vessels. The use of cerebral protection devices in subclavian and innominate interventions is less established.
CLINICAL PRESENTATION
A 58-year-old woman had Takayasu giant cell arteritis with a history of a left middle cerebral artery stroke 3 weeks after undergoing placement of a left common carotid artery (CCA) stent and right innominate artery stent in 1998. She recently presented with worsening dizziness, ataxia, and right arm numbness and was referred to the endovascular neurosurgery service for management.
INTERVENTION
Initial angiography revealed left CCA stenosis and right innominate occlusion. The patient initially underwent left CCA angioplasty, planned as a staged procedure. This was followed by recanalization of the right innominate artery through an approach using both femoral arteries and the right brachial artery. This 3-site technique allowed simultaneous distal protection of both the right cervical vertebral and carotid arteries.
CONCLUSION
Reopening a chronically occluded innominate artery risks an embolic shower through both the right vertebral and carotid arteries. Using multiple sites of arterial access, distal protection devices can be deployed in both the cervical vertebral and carotid arteries to reduce the risk of stroke.

Abstract
Endovascular treatment (stenting) has evolved as an effective and safe treatment modality for symptomatic subclavian and innominate artery disease. Most of these patients have comorbid conditions associated with atherosclerotic vascular disease, which is responsible for the access site and increased difficulty of procedure. We report a case of symptomatic innominate artery stenosis with concomitant atherosclerotic disease of the abdominal aorta successfully treated with using coronary devices and the pull-through technique via the bilateral brachial approach.

Abstract
The left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is currently used in most coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries due to excellent long-term patency. Left subclavian artery stenosis (SAS) proximal to the LIMA origin can cause a steal syndrome leading to myocardial ischemia or LIMA failure. We retrospectively evaluated the records of 608 consecutive patients referred for CABG at our institution between October 1, 2004 and October 1, 2006 and identified 226 patients (37%) who underwent left subclavian angiography immediately after diagnostic coronary angiography. Significant left SAS was found in 6 of those 226 patients (2.7%). Subclavian angiography did not result in any complications. All left SAS lesions were successfully stented, followed by CABG surgery (using the LIMA artery) after 22+/-7 days. Left subclavian angiography in patients referred for coronary artery bypass surgery has low risk and may identify a small proportion of patients with significant proximal left SAS. Stenting of proximal left SAS can be accomplished before CABG with low risk and excellent short-term outcomes.

Abstract
Approximately 20% to 40% of patients who have cerebral vascular disease have a vertebral artery-origin stenosis. Atherosclerotic lesions of vertebral arety origin are a potential cause of posterior circulation ischemia, which can be disabling or deadly. Endovascular treatment of vertebral artery-origin and innominate/subclavian artery stenosis has changed in the last 15 years. Surgery usually is successful technically; however, it is also associated with high rates of procedural and periprocedural complications. New techniques and technologies that can be used in the treatment of such lesions are being developed. In this article, the authors discuss the indications, technical aspects, and long-term results of angioplasty and stenting of these vessels.
