More Information
Summary:Contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CEMRA) showed local stenosis in the left subclavian artery proximal to the posterior part of the joint, about 8mm longitudinal length. Results Percutaneous angiography(PTA) was performed for guidance of further treatment, which revealed that the left subclavian artery was stenosis about 95% near the beginning, and no stenosis in the distal segment coronary artery, renal artery, internal carotid artery and the right subclavian artery was found. [...]besides systemic treatment by corticosteroid of TA, peripheral vascular stenosis is mainly treated by surgery or interventional therapy, such as balloon dilatation or stent implantation.
