Özet

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is a widely-accepted method for patients with arterial stenosis and occlusion. Technical succes rate of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is higher than 90% in atherosclerotic lesions. In this study, the results of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty were evaluated in a 49-year-old women with coldness, numbness and pain in her right hand due to brachial artery occlusion. After percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, despite remnant stenosis, complaints of the patient were recovered. The Doppler flow form of the brachial artery and pulsation of the radial and ulnar artery were improved.
