Abstract
Site of access vascular complications is infrequent after transradial interventions. We report the case of a 66-year-old man referred to our hospital because of right forearm swelling, oedema and pain with functional forearm disability, 1 year after a transradial primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The diagnostic and procedural issues are discussed. This is the first description of a successful and well-tolerated radial arteriovenous fistula (AVF) treatment by means of percutaneous antegrade approach with the use of a short introducer and a biocompatible covered stent.
