Radial Artery Occlusion in a Patient With Lupus, Antiphospholipid Syndrome, and Raynaud Phenomenon: A Multimodal Approach.
Journal of Hand Surgery 2019 October 2
Radial artery occlusion (RAO) is a known complication of transradial catheterization for cardiac procedures. The transradial approach has decreased bleeding complications compared with the transfemoral approach, but risks provoking hand ischemia. We present a case of a 29-year-old peripartum woman with a history of lupus, antiphospholipid syndrome, and Raynaud phenomenon who developed RAO with hand-threatening ischemia despite therapeutic anticoagulation. Given the patient's medical history, a multimodal approach was applied including thrombectomy, arterial bypass, venous arterialization, and onobotulinum toxin A sympathectomy. The patient's ischemia improved after the procedure, and she regained normal use of the hand.
