Abstract

We report a case of successful treatment of a severely diseased saphenous vein graft from the transradial approach. Initial rheolytic thrombectomy was performed followed by coronary stenting through a 6 French guide catheter. Continuing miniaturization of interventional devices increases the utility of the transradial approach.
