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.

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 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.

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

Therapeutic embolization of aneurysmal bone cyst

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 Percutaneous Embolization in Intractable Epistaxis

Radiology, 1974
Two cases of intractable epistaxis are reported in which angiographic demonstration of the bleeding site was followed by successful therapeutic embolization with Gelfoam particles. The particles were inserted through the catheter as near the bleeding site as possible, and cessation of bleeding was ...

Therapeutic embolization with a microballoon catheter system

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1980
Clinical experience with a new embolization and perfusion microballoon catheter system is presented in 34 patients with angiomas, arteriovenous fistulas, and cerebral hemorrhages. The system uses two separate balloon tips, one for detachment as an embolus and one for perfusion of elastomer.
