Abstract

The landmark at the opposite end of an occluded segment can be used for probing the occluded subclavian artery to be recanalized. Using this technique in three patients with symptomatic subclavian artery occlusion, we found the landmark-wire technique to be safe and effective for reopening completely occluded subclavian arteries. We also introduced a technique in which a protective device can be safely used throughout the stenting procedure.
