Transradial versus transfemoral approach for percutaneous coronary procedures
Current Cardiology Reports, 09/24/09
Franchi E et al. – The main disadvantage is a higher incidence of procedural failure that leads to a crossover to the femoral route. In this review, the authors examine the available evidence on transradial and transfemoral approach advantages, disadvantages, and complications in coronary angiography and intervention. Their use in the acute myocardial infarction setting and other situations is described. Vascular closure device usefulness is also considered.
