First Test of BMX 81 in Montpellier ! I usually think twice to go for Radial access when the left carotid is loopy or 360 for stability concerns. Indeed additional intermediate catheter to improve stability may reduce the inner working lumen to only one tool . I Was pretty amazed by the stability offered by this new BMX81 penumbra used by radial 7F allowing a maximal stability of two microcathers in jailling technic for this growing 4 mm left MCA aneurysm (see a WEB in the ruptured A1 aneurysm ipsilateral at one year by the way). No kick back despite staying a low position outside the skull base ! Congratulations to the R&D team . This is clearly enlarging the Radial access indication ! Thanks
