Complications by translumbar aortography.
Abstract
The complications resulting from different methods of translumbar aortography were evaluated by checking 1192 examinations performed with 1) a cannula, 2) a straight catheter, and 3) a curved catheter. The latter method was found to be far more safe than the other two. According to the complication rates found in the literature the curved catheter translumbar method is also safer than the transaxillar and comparable to transfemoral aortography by the Seldinger method.
