Association of pelvic fracture patterns, pelvic binder use and arterial angio-embolization with transfusion requirements and mortality rates; a 7-year retrospective cohort study

BMC Surgery, 2017
Background Pelvic fractures are severe injuries with frequently associated multi-system trauma and a high mortality rate. The value of the pelvic fracture pattern for predicting transfusion requirements and mortality is not entirely clear.

Epistaxis: The role of arterial embolization

Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2015
Epistaxis is defined as flow of blood from the nasal fossae and is a common and benign disorder in the great majority of cases which does not require medical care. It may however become a genuine medical or surgical emergency because of the amount, repeated episodes or patient's medical vulnerability (such as coronary artery disease patients ...

How Arterial Embolization Is Transforming Treatment of Oncologic and Degenerative Musculoskeletal Disease. [PDF]

Curr Oncol
Background: Arterial embolization is a minimally invasive treatment that occludes blood vessels supplying pathological tissue. Developed to control bleeding without surgery, it has evolved over decades and is now applied in musculoskeletal oncology as a ...

Hepatic Arterial Embolization for the Treatment of Metastatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

International Journal of Hepatology, 2012
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) have a high predilection for metastasizing to the liver and can cause severe debilitating symptoms adversely affecting quality of life. Although surgery remains the treatment of choice, many liver metastases are inoperable at

Transcatheter arterial embolization for hemothorax caused by spinal fracture without arterial injury: a case report and review of the literature

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Spinal fractures rarely cause hemothorax, and no treatment consensus has been reached. Conservative treatment is generally selected in cases without arterial injury, but there have been some reports of uncontrolled bleeding.

Deep learning in computed tomography pulmonary angiography imaging: a dual-pronged approach for pulmonary embolism detection [PDF]

Expert Systems With Applications, Volume 245, 1 July 2024, 123029, 2023
The increasing reliance on Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA) for Pulmonary Embolism (PE) diagnosis presents challenges and a pressing need for improved diagnostic solutions. The primary objective of this study is to leverage deep learning techniques to enhance the Computer Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) of PE.

Blood‐Derived Biomaterial for Catheter‐Directed Arterial Embolization

Advances in Materials, 2020
Vascular embolization is a life‐saving minimally invasive catheter‐based procedure performed to treat bleeding vessels. Through these catheters, numerous metallic coils are often pushed into the bleeding artery to stop the blood flow.
