Renal Denervation via Left Transradial Artery Approach to Circumvent Infrarenal Aortic Tortuosity

Amit Saha, Sameet Palkhiwala, Sunil V. Rao, Louai Razzouk

ABSTRACT

Infrarenal aortic pathology can complicate the approach to renal denervation using currently approved transfemoral systems. We describe a case of infrarenal aortic tortuosity precluding stable engagement of the right renal artery. Based on the patient's height and the treatment catheter's length, we successfully converted to a left transradial approach to complete the procedure without complication.
