Modification of the No-Touch Technique during Renal Artery Stenting

Blog Article

Renal artery stenting has been established as the primary form of renal artery stenosis revascularization procedure.The no-touch technique is proposed in order to avoid renal artery injury and atheroembolism during renal artery stenting.We describe a modification of the no-touch technique by using COVID-19 impacts on passenger rail transport in Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Romania an over-the-wire (OTW) balloon or a Quickcross catheter with a coronary wire inside, instead of the rigid J wire.

The reported technique, while it prevents direct contact of the guiding catheter with the aortic wall, at the same time it allows for a closer contact with the renal arterial ostium and Molecular Mechanisms of Intracellular Delivery of Nanoparticles Monitored by an Enzyme-Induced Proximity Labeling a more favorable guiding catheter orientation, compared to what is achieved with the use of the more rigid J wire, thus improving visualization, reducing the amount of contrast required, and potentially decreasing complications.
