title: Subclavian steal syndrome successfully treated with a novel application of embolic capture angioplasty.
abstract: Subclavian artery stenosis can lead to subclavian steal syndrome. Endovascular treatment of these lesions has become the preferred modality. We describe the successful use of embolic capture angioplasty for the treatment of a patient with subclavian artery stenosis resulting in subclavian steal syndrome.
