✦ Synopsis


We report two cases of acute myocardial infarction treated by primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angloplasty (PTCA) In which femoral arterial access was either contralndicated or impossible. In both, emergency PTCA was successfully performed via the left radial artery, including stent implantation in one patient, without entry site complication.
