[Transbronchial catheterization: a method for outpatient angiographic examination].
The authors report on their own experiences with a not unknown, but not widely used catheter technique. On the basis of 607 transbrachial angiographies, they have established the possibilities and occasional dangers of this method. They conclude that the transbrachial technique is suitable not only for aortography, but also for selective angiography and vascular interventions. In cases involving cooperative patients, this method can furnish a basis for the angiography of outpatients.
