Implication

Transradial stenting appears feasible in select cases; leaves open safety, efficacy, and generalizability pending prospective trials.

Structured PICO

P
Population
3 patients requiring coronary stenting (1 saphenous vein graft stenosis, 1 anterior descending coronary artery restenosis after atherectomy, 1 circumflex coronary artery restenosis after balloon angioplasty)
I
Intervention
Palmaz Schatz coronary stent implantation via the radial artery using miniaturized angioplasty equipment
O
Outcome
Description of technique and rationale

This early report demonstrates the feasibility of the transradial approach for coronary stent implantation.
