Desaturation during Onyx embolization.
Editor—The Onyx Liquid Embolic System (Onyx; Micro Therapeutics, Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) is a new non-adhesive liquid embolic agent and is currently being used at our institution in the embolization of cerebral vascular lesions. The disadvantage of Onyx is that it is dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO). Systemic toxicity, such as pulmonary oedema, bronchospasm, bradyarrhythmia, and even card...
متن کاملBrain AVM embolization with Onyx.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To report the initial experience by using a new liquid embolic agent (Onyx) for embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). METHODS Between May 2000 and December 2005, 44 patients with brain AVMs were embolized with Onyx. There were 18 women and 26 men with a mean age of 42.4 years (median 44, range 14-71 years). Clinical presentation included seizures in ...
متن کاملIn Vitro Quantification of the Radiopacity of Onyx during Embolization
PURPOSE Onyx has been successfully applied in the treatment of various neurovascular lesions. However, some experience is required to get accustomed to its unpredictable fluoroscopic visibility during injection. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of radiopacity change in a simulated embolization procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using a bench-top Onyx injection experimen...
متن کاملTranscatheter Bronchial Artery Aneurysm Embolization with Onyx
The aneurism was unpacking because of vessel caliper and tortuosity, so why we decided to embolize with Onyx 34 because its capability of occluding feeding vessels, preventing retrograde filling of the aneurysm. In order to avoid vessel dissection, Onyx was released as close as possible to the aneurismatic sac with “plug and push” technique [8]. A safe injection rate of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO...
متن کاملOnyx Embolization of Intracranial Pial Arteriovenous Fistula
Intracranial pial arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are rare cerebrovascular lesions consisting of one or more arterial connections to a single venous channel without an intervening nidus. Because of the location and high flow dynamics of these lesions, neurosurgeons may have a difficulty deciding between endovascular treatment and open surgical treatment. We report on a patient who underwent endov...
