Coil embolization alone appears sufficient for middle meningeal artery embolization
Background Middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) has shown promise as an alternative treatment for chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH); however, the most effective procedural technique is debated. We sought to assess the safety and efficacy of coil embolization as a stand-alone technique for MMAE in cSDH.

Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization and the Treatment of a Chronic Subdural Hematoma [PDF]
Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a common pathology that typically affects the elderly. It is believed to occur due to injury to the dural border cells, which creates an inflammation/proliferation reaction. Ineffective repair leads to the formation of a new external layer of cells and fragile capillaries, which damage easily and can worsen the ...

Middle meningeal artery embolization for the management of chronic subdural hematoma [PDF]
Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is one of the most common neurosurgical diagnoses in adults. The disease is fundamentally a disorder of the meningeal blood vessels, and options exist for the minimally invasive neuroendovascular management. We review the potential role for the endovascular management of cSDH within the context of a discussion of the ...

Grading Embolization of Middle Meningeal Artery for Chronic Subdural Hematoma
ABSTRACT: Background and Purpose: Embolization of middle meningeal artery (EMMA) is a relatively new treatment for chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). To date, an objective method that assesses or describes the extent of EMMA for the treatment of CSDH does not exist.
