A new liquid material for embolization of arteriovenous malformations.
We have developed a liquid material for embolization of arteriovenous malformations that is a mixture of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer and metrizamide dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide. Upon contact with blood, dimethyl sulfoxide rapidly diffuses into the blood and forms an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer elastic soft sponge that obstructs both the feeder and the nidus. The material, which is...
متن کاملEmbolization of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations
Cure: Because We Could and Because We Should We read with great interest the commentary by Jayaraman and Cloft about the necessity for curative embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and we feel obliged to present our objections to their views. It is absolutely true that for any treatment to be justified, it needs to have high success and low complication rates. Because embol...
متن کاملEmbolization and radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations
The treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) requires a multidisciplinary management including microsurgery, endovascular embolization, and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). This article reviews the recent advancements in the multimodality treatment of patients with AVMs using endovascular neurosurgery and SRS. We describe the natural history of AVMs and the role of endovascular and radio...
متن کاملSymptomatic pulmonary complications from liquid acrylate embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations.
PURPOSE To describe symptomatic pulmonary emboli from brain arteriovenous malformation embolization with liquid acrylates and to analyze the reasons for these complications and describe preventive techniques. METHODS The clinical records of 182 patients embolized with acrylate glue since 1978 for treatment of brain AVMs were searched for evidence of symptomatic pulmonary complications. Origin...
متن کاملEndovascular Embolization of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations with Eudragit-E
Eudragit-E was originally developed as a non-adhesive liquid embolic material in the late 1990s and is a copolymer of methyl and butyl methacrylate and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate that is dissolved in ethanol and iopamidol. This material has been used for endovascular embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) for some time but is currently not widely used. Because safety and ...
