Figure 1 Peripheral angiogram of axillary artery stenosis and its endovascular treatment in case 1.
A: Angiogram showing 90% short segment stenosis of proximal part of right axillary artery; B: Brisk flow with no residual stenosis of axillary artery following a 8 mm × 40 mm self expanding nitinol stent deployments; C: At 10 mo of follow-up, patent axillary stent with no in-stent restenosis and brisk flow across it.
Figure 2 Peripheral angiogram of axillary artery stenosis and its endovascular treatment in case 2.
A: Total occlusion of distal part of left axillary and brachial artery; B: Brisk flow across the axillary-brachial segment following two 8 mm × 80 mm, 8 mm × 60 mm self expanding nitinol stent deployment; C: At 5 mo of follow-up, patent axillary stent and brisk flow across it.
