Distal Radial Approach through the Anatomical Snuff Box for Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Left Snuffbox Approach below the wrist across patients, the snuff box approach is not always feasible.However, the availability of simple conversion to conventional radial approach makes it an easy target for a first shot.In conclusion, distal radial approach through the anatomical snuff box is emerging as a feasible and safe alternative to conventional one with several advantages.It is very attractive in maximizing strengths of the conventional left radial approach.Therefore, Kim et al.'s data 5) warrant further studies on the snuff box approach in terms of various short-and longterm clinical outcomes under various clinical situations.
