Characteristics of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVAL) mixtures.
PURPOSE To determine physical characteristics of mixtures of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVAL) and metrizamide dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, liquid materials developed for embolization of arteriovenous malformations. METHODS EVAL and dimethyl sulfoxide were mixed in various proportions and sterilized. The viscosity and density of each mixture was measured. Precipitation times were de...
متن کاملTechnical feasibility and histopathologic studies of ethylene vinyl copolymer (EVAL) using a swine endovascular embolization model.
PURPOSE To study the safety, technical efficacy, and histopathology of the ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVAL) embolic mixture in an animal model. METHODS Microcatheterization of the rete was performed in 29 swine. The clinical, angiographic, and histopathologic consequences of superselective injection of the two principal embolic mixture components (EVAL and dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO]) we...
متن کاملEmbolization of intracranial arteriovenous malformations with ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx).
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endovascular therapy of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is increasingly used. However, it is still under discussion which embolic material is optimal. We report our experience in the treatment of AVMs with ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between July 2002 and January 2008, brain AVMs were embolized with Onyx in 82 consecuti...
متن کاملTechnique and Role of Embolization using Ethylene Vinyl-Alcohol Copolymer before Carotid Body Tumor Resection
A 45-year old female referred for a large carotid body tumor resection. The tumor was encasing the internal (ICA) and external carotid arteries (ECA). She underwent angiogram and embolization of the ascending pharyngeal artery and a distal branch of the ECA using ethylene vinyl-alcohol copolymer (EVOH). Two days later, surgical resection of the tumor with regional lymph node dissection was perf...
متن کاملTranscatheter embolization of congenital hepatic arteriovenous malformation using ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx).
A male infant with high-output heart failure who had been found to have a hepatic arteriovenous malformation by ultrasound imaging was referred to our center (Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Imam Khomeini Hospital, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran) for further evaluation. Computed tomography angiography revealed a large hepat...
