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.

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 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 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 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 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 approach to acute pulmonary embolism

Intensive Care Medicine, 1984
Many therapeutic aspects of venous thromboembolism continue to generate controversy so that the general therapeutic guidelines given below are only indicative. The first step is the diagnosis of venous thromboembolism; this is done in the vast majority of patients by visualization of blood clots using either pulmonary angiography or phlebography.

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 ...

Cerebral Air Embolism Complicating Therapeutic Pneumoperitoneum

Diseases of the Chest, 1954
The following case study is presented to illustrate the concept that recovery from the invariably disastrous effects of arterial air embolism, accidentally Incurred during the therapeutic administration of pneumoperitoneum, may be possible if certain recognized and specific maneuvers are practiced correctly.This particular subject is of extreme ...
