Endovascular management of abdominal wall hematomas (AWHs) is now the primary treatment option in hemodynamically stable patients, and it often preferred to surgical interventions. The purpose this multicentric study was assess safety, technical, clinical success percutaneous transarterial embolization (PTAE) spontaneous AWHs evaluate efficacy blind or empiric compared targeted compare outcome ...

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.

Considerable efforts have been placed on the development of degradable microspheres for use in transarterial embolization indications. Using the guidance of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) special controls document for the preclinical evaluation of vascular embolization devices, this review consolidates all relevant data pertaining to novel degradable microsphere technologies for bl...

Of the 227 embolization procedures performed by our neurointerventional section for symptomatic carotid-cavernous fistulas over the past 10 years, five involved placement of platinum coils in the cavernous sinus from a transarterial route. In four patients, prior transarterial balloon procedures had failed to produce fistula closure. In the fifth patient, with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a prior tr...

Scalp arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) following hair transplantation are rare; few single case reports have been described. Therapeutic options include open surgery, percutaneous, and transarterial endovascular embolization; in recent years, these latter gained favour because of their minimally invasive approach also concerning post-treatment cutaneous appearance. A 29-year-old male after 3 months...

Spontaneous ruptures of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are rare. Nevertheless they may lead to difficult decisions in the emergency situation. The acute therapies include conservative treatment, transarterial embolization and surgery. Curative treatment of HCC can be achieved by liver resection solely. The decision-making depends on prognostic patient's factors, such as hepatic viral infection ...

conclusion superselective tae for lgi bleeding has a high success and low complication rate. there are no statistical correlations between the clinical success rate and several variables, including embolic material, embolization site, and anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication. patients and methods fifty-two patients who underwent superselective tae for lgi bleeding between 2003 and 2011 were...

Empirical embolization of the gastroduodenal artery (GDA) is accepted as a safe and effective treatment option for endoscopy-refractory nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) in patients with high surgical risk. Nontarget embolization is a recognized complication of transarterial embolization, however, symptomatic pancreatic injury is extremely rare. We report a patient who develope...

We present a unique case of abdominal aortic aneurysm initially presenting with inferior vena cava compression leading to deep venous thrombosis, for which the patient subsequently underwent an endovascular aortic repair. Aorto-uni-iliac endografting was performed for subacute occlusion of left common iliac artery complicated by proximal type 1 endoleak. Subsequent management of the endoleak wa...
