Abstract

Percutaneous intervention for symptomatic subclavian artery chronic occlusion is an occasionally performed, minimally invasive alternative to surgical bypass. Potential complications include stroke, perforation, and recanalization failure. We discuss a case of successful percutaneous revascularization of symptomatic subclavian artery chronic occlusion using coronary devices and dual cerebral embolic protection.
