Post procedural
aortogram was performed to verify device position and to evaluate residual leak.
An arch
aortogram was also performed during left radial artery approach, which revealed the right carotid, left carotid, and left subclavian arteries (LSAs) arising from the arch as separate branches.
Doppler
Aortogram showed thrombus in great vesselscommon carotids 50% occlusion on each side, Rt.
Left ventricular angiogram and
aortogram were within normal parameters.
In accordance with these studies, our patient was hypertensive and also had atherosclerotic changes in
aortogram.
A computed tomography (CT)
aortogram was urgently performed to exclude the presence of an aortic dissection or aneurysm.
Arterial anatomy was established by abdominal
aortogram in both the anterior-posterior and lateral views.
Aortogram revealed mild disease in the aorta with significant tortuosity of the common iliac arteries.
In his entire residency he never had to come in once for an angiography case on call, except for one
aortogram he needed to perform on his last night of resident call.
After obtaining arterial access, flush
aortogram was obtained to search for bronchial or intercostal arteries supplying the diseased lung parenchyma.
Flood pelvic
aortogram demonstrated a small focus of active contrast pooling within the right prostatic bed, which was confirmed on selective right internal iliac artery angiogram (Fig.
Mild aortic regurgitation was seen on the
aortogram (Fig.
