Left subclavian artery stenosis treated with a balloon-expandable stent in a female patient in their 60 s with intermittent dizziness for more than half a year, weak left pulse, and a 30 mmHg difference in blood pressure between bilateral brachial arteries. (A) Subclavian angiography through the left radial artery access demonstrated a severe stenosis of approximately 90% of the left subclavian artery. (B) A 8 mm × 17 mm balloon-expandable stent was precisely positioned at the stenotic location and deployed to repair the stenosis. (C) After stent angioplasty, angiography revealed patent stent with a residual stenosis < 30%.
