Abstract
We report on the percutaneous treatment of thrombosed prosthetic brachial-basilic access using the transradial approach. Seven procedures in five patients with a thrombosed prosthetic brachial-basilic access were performed using this approach. Balloon angioplasty of the prosthetic graft and the venous anastomosis site was performed in all patients. In addition, pulse spray thombolysis, before balloon angioplasty, and maceration were performed in one patient. All procedures were clinically and anatomically successful. There were no procedure-related complications.
