Abstract

We present a case of a patient with total chronic occlusion of the right common iliac artery that underwent percutaneous stenting with combined transpedal and transradial approaches. With this novel strategy, femoral access can be avoided.

Keywords: Iliac artery total occlusion; Peripheral vascular disease; Transpedal access; Transradial access.
