title: Transradial bilateral common iliac ostial stenting using simultaneous hugging stent (SHS) technique.
abstract: Current literature has limited reports of iliac artery interventions performed via transradial approach (TRA). We report four successive cases of bilateral common iliac ostial stenting using simultaneous hugging stent (SHS) technique through bilateral TRA. This technique allows the patient and the operator to exploit the benefits of TRA while treating this complex substrate.
