Animal Models for Therapeutic Embolization

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2003
Embolization techniques have been performed in different animals to accumulate basic data before a clinical trial. Choosing the right embolization model for a specific project is critical. However, there are several variables when defining the best model for embolization research such as the size of the animal to be used, the target organs, the route ...

Therapeutic embolization of juvenile angiofibroma

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1979
Therapeutic embolization of juvenile angiofibromas was performed in 15 boys, aged 12--18 years, 11 of whom subsequently underwent surgery. Intraoperative blood loss was reduced from an average of 2,400 ml in nonembolized patients to 800 ml after embolization. Angiography is of value to confirm the diagnosis prior to excision and to delineate the extent

Pulsatile Tinnitus and Therapeutic Embolization

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1979
Fifteen patients with disabling pulse-synchronous tinnitus were investigated with super-selective angiography demonstrating an arteriovenous malformation in 8 cases, chemodectoma of the jugular bulb in 3, and a local arterial stenosis in one case. In 12 of these cases the murmur could be registered objectively, while in the 3 cases with a negative ...

Therapeutic Arterial Embolization in Trauma

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1979
Use of therapeutic arterial embolization (TAE) in the traumatized patient can achieve rapid control of hemorrhage and obviate the need for immediate surgery on poor-risk patients or in high-risk areas of the body. The techniques of embolization, its risks, and complications are discussed in light of the authors' experience, and a review of recent ...

Transcatheter Therapeutic Arterial Embolization

Radiology, 1976
Transcatheter therapeutic arterial embolization was employed in 11 patients with gastrointestinal hemorrhage and 8 patients with bleeding from other sites. Hemorrhage was stopped successfully in all of the patients with gastrointestinal bleeding and 6 of the 7 patients with active bleeding from other sites.

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

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 Ivalon embolization of hepatic tumors

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1982
Ivalon particles were used for 80 hepatic artery embolizations in 50 patients who had either primary or metastatic hepatic neoplasms. Ten patients died within 1-5 months and the remaining 40 patients were still alive. The post-hepatic embolization syndrome was identical to that following Gelfoam embolization.

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 aspects of fat embolism syndrome

Injury, 2006
Signs and symptoms of clinical fat embolism syndrome (FES) usually begin within 24-48 hours after trauma. The classic triad involves pulmonary changes, cerebral dysfunction, and petechial rash. Clinical diagnosis is key because laboratory and radiographic diagnosis is not specific and can be inconsistent.
