Standard radial approach from the right or left wrist has become a dominant arterial approach for coronary catheterizations and interventions with IA recommendation in 2018 Guidelines for myocardial revascularization of European Society of Cardiology. Since that time several articles has been published about distal radial approach. This article describes our first experience with this new approach.

Keywords: radial artery, standard radial approach, distal radial approach.
