DISCUSSION
In terms of coronary revascularization via RA, this is the first comparison between the sheathless and the
standard transradial approaches, as well as the largest series published thus far on RA plaque modification
performed using a sheathless guiding catheter. The femoral access cohort, representing the traditional
