Therapeutic Transcatheter Arterial Embolization

Radiology, 1974
The authors present two cases of therapeutic embolization, utilizing two different foreign materials. In a case of massive gastrointestinal bleeding from a gastric ulcer which had eroded the splenic artery, Gelfoam (gelatin) plugs injected through a gray Kifa catheter resulted in immediate cessation of bleeding. In the other case, rupture of the suture

Therapeutic management of acute pulmonary embolism

Expert Review of Respiratory Medicine, 2017
Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a potentially fatal manifestation of venous thromboembolism. Prompt anticoagulant treatment is crucial for PE patients, which can decrease morbidity and mortality. Risk assessment is the cornerstone of the therapeutic management of PE. It guides physicians to the most appropriate treatment and selects patients for early

Therapeutic Embolization of Renal Cell Carcinoma

European Urology, 1977
The technique of embolization of renal cell carcinoma is assessed on the basis of the authors' experience. The procedure is usually envisaged in case of hypervascularized extracapsular tumors, with the purpose of obtaining the preoperative occlusion of the renal artery.

Unexpected complications following therapeutic embolization

Neuroradiology, 1978
Unexpected complications may follow therapeutic embolization, even though no apparent technical errors have occurred. This report includes four cases of facial palsy following middle meningeal artery embolization, one case of aspiration pneumonia following glomus tumor embolization, and a case of pulmonary embolization following embolization of a ...

Therapeutic embolization of aneurysmal bone cyst [PDF]

Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology, 1989
Results of therapeutic embolization of aneurysmal bone cysts in five patients are described. Transcatheter arterial embolization was performed with Ivalon and Gelfoam particles and Gianturco coils. The postembolization period was characterized by complete relief of pain and decrease in size of the aneurysmal bone cyst in all patients. In patients whose

Therapeutic Cerebral Embolization

Archives of Neurology, 1986
One of the most distressing duties of a physician is to tell a patient who has bled from a cerebral arteriovenous malformation that nothing can be done to prevent a recurrence. The development of angiographically controlled embolization of arteriovenous malformations has opened a new therapeutic avenue for inoperable cases. To innovate is to challenge

Therapeutic Embolization for Intractable Chronic Bleeding

Radiology, 1977
Intractable, chronic vaginal and/or vesicle bleeding complicating pelvic cancers in five women was treated by transcatheter embolization of the hypogastric artery or its branches. Bleeding was presumed to be from hypervascular granulation tissue formed in response to irradiation in two patients and from tumor tissue in three. The embolic materials were

Fatal Air Embolism in Therapeutic Pneumoperitoneum

Diseases of the Chest, 1956
Introduction of air into the peritoneal cavity by means of needle puncture is an old procedure. It has been used for local treatment of tubercubous peritonitis as early as 1893, as a diagnostic procedure since 1902 and for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis since 1933.

Therapeutic angiographic embolization

The British Journal of Radiology, 1977
The accepted term “Interventional radiology” (Wallace, 1976) is imprecise. It refers here to an increasing number of clinical situations where the diagnostic radiologist can offer, by means of the angiographic catheter, obliterative treatment that is sometimes temporary, but may be permanent. “Therapeutic angiographic embolization” is more appropriate.

Therapeutic Embolization of Facial Arteriovenous Fistulae

Radiology, 1979
Two cases of percutaneous transfemoral embolization of facial hemangiomas and arteriovenous (AV) malformations are reported. In both cases, Ivalon shavings were injected through a percutaneously placed catheter to permanently occlude peripheral feeders of the AV malformation. In one case, because of the size of the large venous sacs associated with the
