Abstract
The percutaneous transradial artery approach for coronary angiography and intervention has been recognized as a safe and effective method, however, it is limited for endovascular therapy (EVT) for femoro-popliteal artery because of lack of devices with longer shaft. Herein, we report two EVT cases for superficial femoral artery disease treated with a long shaft balloon through the radial artery. Although femoro-popliteal artery intervention with this approach has several limits for available devices and technical issues, it is effective for particular patients who are impossible in EVT with femoral artery approach.
