INTRACRANIAL EMBOLIZATION: A RARE COMPLICATION
We report a case of a rare complication: aortic pseudoaneurysm rupture after embolization of an intracranial aneurysm in a 62 –year- old patient with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage, presented with chest pain and shortness of breath the fourth day after the procedure. The intracranial aneurysm was embolized with no intraoperative complications, and

Tissue plasminogen activator dose and pulmonary artery pressure reduction in catheter directed thrombolysis of submassive pulmonary embolism. [PDF]
PURPOSE:The purpose of this study is to assess the incremental effect of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) dose on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and bleeding during catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) of submassive pulmonary embolism (PE). MATERIALS

Magnetic resonance angiography signal intensity as a marker of hemodynamic impairment in intracranial arterial stenosis. [PDF]
BackgroundIntracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) is the predominant cause of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack in Asia. Change of signal intensities (SI) across an ICAS on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) may reflect its hemodynamic ...

Preoperative Embolization of Intracranial Meningiomas
The method and results for preoperative embolization are described in 36 cases with intracranial meningiomas. Embolization materials were injected through a transfemoral catheter, selectively placed in the external carotid artery. Chopped gelfoam served as embolization material in 29 patients and ivalon particles were used in 7 patients.
