Abstract

Over the past quarter century there has been rapid growth of percutaneous endovascular procedures. The estimated total amount of open and endovascular cardiac and vascular surgery procedures is close to 7 million per year [1]. According to the American Heart Association’s Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics, approximately 1,285,000 angioplasty procedures were performed in 2004 [1]. The number of stents placed annually is now well over 1 million per year with 615,000 coronary stents, 400,000 peripheral stents, and 40,000 stents for renal artery stenosis, in addition to stents at other sites [1, 2, 3]. Endovascular procedures are performed in venues ranging from operating rooms to catheterization laboratories and are performed by a wide array of specialists including interventional radiologists, neurosurgeons, cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, and vascular surgeons. Furthermore, these procedures are commonly performed all over the body: cerebral, carotid, subclavian, coronary, mesenteric, renal, and peripheral arteries. The common gradient in all these procedures is the percutaneous puncture site.
