24. CONCLUSION
• Single access or bilateral transradial approach seems
well suited for subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion
• Current available equipment appears adequate
• Bilateral guidance and ‘guideless-technique’ is another
example of slender-type approach
• Long term results offer similar results than previous
series with brachial or femoral access with usual
additional safety benefit of radial/ulnar access
