Preoperative Embolization of Cerebellar Hemangioblastoma with Onyx: Report of Three Cases
Hemangioblastoma is a benign and highly vascular tumor. Complete surgical resection of highly vascular tumor such as hemangioblastoma may be challenging due to excessive bleeding. Preoperative embolization of these lesions may decrease the intraoperative blood loss and facilitate excision. We report three cases of cerebellar hemangioblastomas that were embolized using Onyx.
متن کاملPreoperative embolization of a hemangioblastoma.
The patient is a 14-year-old boy with a family history of von HippelLindau disease. The boy's father died from intracranial manifestations of the disease. Sixteen months before this admission to the hospital, the patient was found to have two cerebellar hemangioblastomas, and one was removed . Blood loss ' at surgery was 600 ml, and achieving hemostasis was difficult. The remaining tumor was re...
متن کاملPreoperative embolization of cervical spine osteoblastomas: report of three cases.
Our aim was to describe the technique and clinical results of preoperative embolization of cervical spine osteoblastomas. We treated 3 patients with these tumors with transarterial embolization and subsequent surgical excision. In all 3 patients, distal access to the tumor-supplying vessels was gained with a microcatheter and embolization was performed with polyvinyl alcohol particles. No compl...
متن کاملPreoperative Onyx embolization of aggressive vertebral hemangiomas.
We report the first use of Onyx in the embolization of spinal tumors in 2 cases of aggressive vertebral hemangioma. In both cases, Onyx embolization provided effective preoperative tumor devascularization after the initial prolonged particulate embolization with Embospheres made little overall impact. Onyx enables a more rapid and visible embolization than particles and is less technically dema...
متن کاملPreoperative embolization of cerebral arteriovenous malformations with onyx.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Preoperative embolization facilitates the surgical management of complex cerebral arteriovenous malformations (cAVMs). This analysis aims to investigate the risks for preoperative cAVM embolization with Onyx. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of all patients who underwent embolization with Onyx as a preoperative treatment of cAVMs at our in...
