Abstract
Vascular interventionalists continue to expand the scope and breadth of endovascular procedures that we offer to our patients. However, we often have to overcome various anatomical and technical challenges to deliver an endovascular device. This article should give the modern interventionalist an array of technical tips and tricks to enable them to overcome various challenging anatomical features such as vessel tortuosity, vascular calcifications, and increasing abdominal pannus. We also hope to elucidate alternative accesses such as radial access, pedal access, popliteal access, and direct stent access as well as direct aortic access.
