Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2018 Sep 21;31(4):493-495. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2018.1483154. eCollection 2018 Oct.

Abstract

We present the case of a 71-year-old man with critical stenosis of the innominate artery after previously undergoing bilateral carotid artery endarterectomies. We used an open retrograde approach of the right carotid artery to stent the innominate artery lesion employing the new ENROUTE Transcarotid Stent System with flow reversal.

Keywords: Flow reversal system; innominate artery stenosis; retrograde stenting; supra-aortic stent.
