Balloon assisted stent deployment in the cephalic arch (BASCA)
Cephalic arch stenosis causes repeated dysfunction and failure of arteriovenous access. Outcomes following balloon angioplasty alone in this location are unsatisfactory. Stent grafts have very good patency rates in this location. However, stent graft placement is technically challenging in this loca...

description | Cephalic arch stenosis causes repeated dysfunction and failure of arteriovenous access. Outcomes following balloon angioplasty alone in this location are unsatisfactory. Stent grafts have very good patency rates in this location. However, stent graft placement is technically challenging in this location due to the adverse angles and vectors of the cephalic arch. Stent graft deployment in this location is associated with a real risk of jailing the axillary vein, thereby precluding the use of that arm for future accesses and/or predisposes to venous edema. We describe a technique that was used to safely and effectively deploy a stent graft in the cephalic arch of a 65-year-old male patient. |
