Transradial versus transfemoral approach in cerebral angiography: A meta-analysis

CONCLUSION: These findings suggest, despite the ultimate decision regarding the choice of access method might be influenced by the physician's experience and personal preference, the data distinctly lean toward transradial approach as the preferable option for cerebral angiography. The advantages of transradial approach, highlighted by its lower complication rates, especially major complications, suggest that its adoption could contribute to enhanced patient safety and procedural outcomes.PMID:37936392 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231212520
