Percutaneous injection of an alcoholic embolizing emulsion as an alternative preoperative embolization for spine tumor.

چکیده
A hypervascular pheochromocytoma metastasis in the sixth cervical vertebra was embolized preoperatively by an intravertebral injection of an alcoholic embolizing emulsion, when transarterial embolization was considered too dangerous because of the possibility of inadvertent embolization of the intracerebral vertebrobasilar territory.

Comment on: Current concepts in the management of carotid body tumours.
Preoperative embolization has played a major role in the devascularization of carotid body tumours prior to surgery. There are two currently approved methods to achieve this, which is a superselective transarterial endovascular embolization and a direct percutaneous injection of embolic materials . Superselective transarterial endovascular embolization has potential limitations especially in le...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Substantial intraoperative bleeding during surgical removal of head and neck paragangliomas may be a major problem in the management of these highly vascularized tumors. Traditional preoperative embolization via a transarterial approach has proved beneficial but is often limited by complex vascular anatomy and unfavorable locations. We report our experience with the preop...

BACKGROUND We are the first to report one-staged resection of a spinal metastasis from malignant cranial hemangiopericytoma after preoperative Onyx™-20 embolization by direct percutaneous puncture.Spinal metastases from cranial hemangiopericytoma are extremely rare. Surgical morbidity of these highly vascularized tumours results mainly from excessive blood loss. Preoperative embolization of hyp...
متن کاملPreliminary experience with the percutaneous embolization of juvenile angiofibromas using only ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx) for preoperative devascularization prior to surgical resection.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Juvenile angiofibromas are hypervascular tumors that may benefit from preoperative devascularization to reduce intraoperative blood loss. Our purpose was to evaluate the extent of angiographic devascularization and intraoperative blood loss by using only Onyx for percutaneous juvenile angiofibroma tumor embolization. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the clinical record...
