Transradial approach and GC stability Currently, there is an increasing trend of using TRA for neuroendovascular treatments. 17 ) Reports suggest that TRA can reduce the puncture site and overall complications. 20 ) Although TRA has the advantage of fewer puncture site complications, the smaller vessel diameter at the puncture site requires the use of GCs with smaller diameters than those used for TFA. 14 ) Attempts have been made to use sheathless balloon-guiding catheters for TRA. 21 – 23 ) Furthermore, conventional GCs often struggle with “the turn up into the great vessels from the arm”, 14 ) necessitating GCs with higher navigability and stability.
