A member asked:
Chronic radial artery occlusion. what does this mean? doc said there may be concern for embolism with branch occlusion. what does that mean.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thoughts: Chronic means happened a while back - probably months. Radial is the outer side artery from elbow to wrist. Happens from congenital issues, trauma issues, embolism. Atrial fibrillation and clotting disorders can cause such issue. So it can be asymptomatic since there are good to great collaterals in palm.
