CHAPTER 5
Axillary/subclavian access
forendovascular management
ofascending and descending
aortic pathologies

Introduction
Endovascular approaches are being increasingly
utilized to treat a variety of thoracic aortic diseases
(TADs), including aneurysms, pseudoaneurysms,
dissections, penetrating aortic ulcers, traumatic
aortic rupture, and coarctation. The treatment of
descending aorta pathologies is well established
but it is also possible to treat the arch and, more
recently, the ascending aorta as the last frontier.
Adequate vascular access is crucial to obtain good
results. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair
(TEVAR) is usually done through the femoral
arteries. Transfemoral access can be achieved by
direct surgical cut-down and surgical suture closure of the artery, percutaneous puncture with
surgical suture closure, or percutaneous puncture
with percutaneous closure of the femoral artery.
Although there has been a dramatic improvement
in device profiles and navigability with external
hydrophilic coating in commercially available
devices, the diameter of devices remains sizeable.
Sometimes access is impossible or not recommended because of the small size of the vessels,
obstruction, calcification, dissection, or extreme
tortuosity. Vascular access complications such as
dissection, iliac rupture, and thrombosis are stillfrequent. Achieving safe and successful endovascular
access for introduction and deployment of the stentgraft device is an important and often challenging
step during TEVAR. Currently available thoracic
endografts still have a large profile. In 10–30% of the
patients suitable for TEVAR, inadequate femoral
artery access anatomy will be found. Alternative
access sites are important. The axillary/subclavian
artery approach is a viable alternative in cases where
the femoral arteries are not appropriate.
Vascular access evaluation
Complete anatomic evaluation of the thoracic
aortic pathology and the access vessels are key
to success. Preoperative meticulous planning is
fundamental. Physical examination with pulse
palpation and echo Doppler can be used as an initial
screening. Currently, helical computed tomographic angiography (CTA) is the most useful
imaging modality for detailed assessment of access
arterial anatomy, overtaking axial computed tomography (CT) and digital subtraction angiography

(DSA) (Fig.5.1). CTA demonstrates with sharp precision the course and appearance of all vessels of
interest and provides the necessary tools for sizing

and measurements of the devices and helps to
determine the most appropriate access site (Fig.5.2).
Technique
Under general or local anesthesia the axillary artery
is exposed through an incision in the delto-pectoral groove. The pectoralis major muscle is divided
in the direction of its fibers and the insertion of
thepectoralis minor divided. The axillary artery is
easily seen superior to the axillary vein and dissected. The arterial wall is thin and usually free
from atherosclerosis (Fig. 5.3). Care should be
taken to avoid any injury to the brachial plexus.
Following the administration of heparin (1 mg/kg)
a side biting clamp is applied and an anastomosis
constructed with an 8 or 10 mm Dacron tube with
a running suture of 6-0 prolene (Fig.5.4). The tube
is brought from the same incision or, in cases when
the artery is too deep, through a new small stab
incision and left long and parallel to the artery
(Fig.5.5). The tube is left at least 25 cm long, away
from the artery. A 7 Fr sheath is snared to the
extremity of the Dacron tube to avoid bleeding and
facilitate the manipulation of wires and catheters,
and the insertion of the device (Fig.5.6; Video5.1).

showing a type B dissection involving the left subclavian
artery and a bovine arch with a good angulation to access

artery would be the preferred access.

Fig. 5.5 Alternatively, a stab incision in the skin is used to
exteriorize the Dacron tube parallel to the axillary artery.
Fig. 5.4 An 8 mm Dacron tube anastomosed to the right
axillary artery with 6-0 prolene.
The endoprosthesis is introduced by the distal
end with or without the sheath, depending on the
device selected, through the Dacron graft and on
an extra stiff Landerquist 260 cm long guide wire
(Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN) (Fig. 5.7;
Video 5.2). If there is not another access the
Dacron tube can be punctured more proximally
and another 5 or 6 Fr sheath inserted (Figs5.8 and
5.9). Catheters and the rigid guide wire, as well as
the endoprosthesis, can be inserted after enlarging
the hole with an 11 blade, while keeping the distal
end of the graft for angiographic control (Fig.5.10).
An aortography is done with a pigtail introduced
from the same graft, the contralateral arm, or from
the groin for diagnostic landmarks and before
opening the device (Video5.3). The endoprosthesis is then deployed (Video 5.4). Balloon
accommodation is performed in the usual fashion
through the axillary access (Video5.5). Final aortography is performed to check there are no
endoleaks. The wires are removed and the Dacron
tube ligated with two large clips 1 cm away from
the axillary artery and reinforced with a running
suture of 5-0 prolene. The incision is closed in
layers and no drains left. At least one CT scan is
done in the early postoperative period to confirm
the correct position of the endograft and the
absence of endoleaks (Fig. 5.11). Follow-up is
maintained for the patient’s lifetime.
Discussion
The feasibility of endovascular surgery depends on
many anatomic factors, including the diameter and
the disease state of the access vessels [1–4]. Stenosis,
calcifications, tortuosity, small sizes, or dissection of
both femoral and iliac arteries can make the introduction of a large sheath hazardous or impossible.
Aorto-iliac artery stenosis and obstruction is not
uncommon in elderly patients. Women and small
patients often have femoral arteries that are not

compatible in size with large diameter sheaths and
introducers needed to deploy thoracic endoprosthesis. A conduit anastomosed to the iliac artery is an
option when the femoral arteries are not adequate
[5]. Direct extraperitoneal access to the abdominal
aorta with or without a conduit is also possible but is
a big operation. An alternative to groin access is the
axillary artery. The exposure of the axillary artery
through a small infraclavicular incision is familiar
to cardiovascular surgeons as arterial return in
cardiopulmonary bypass in aortic arch surgery [6].
They are often good-sized vessels and usually free
from atherosclerosis, even in patients with extensive
aorto-iliac occlusive disease.
Both axillary arteries can be used. The decision
of the side to use is made based on anatomic details
and its angle detected in the preoperative multislice
CT scan with 3D reconstruction. If both arteries
are of good size and the angle in relation to the
aortic arch is favorable, preference is given for the
left subclavian artery. We believe there is less
chance of debris embolization to the carotid artery
when we avoid the brachiocephalic trunk. If the
left subclavian artery is involved by dissection or
a neurysm we use the right. Careful evaluation
should be taken in patients with prior myocardial
revascularization with the left internal mammary
artery (LIMA), where the risk of left subclavian
artery dissection or temporary occlusion of LIMA
