    A 57-year-old female patient with a thrombosed prosthetic brachial-basilic access. A. Angiogram obtained from the frontal view before the intervention demonstrates the origin of the thrombosed arterial limb of the graft (arrow). B. Angiogram obtained from the frontal view with the catheter placed just distal to the venous limb of the graft shows a tight stenosis at the venous limb. C. Angiogram obtained from the frontal view after the PTA shows patency.
