Therapeutic embolization for vascular trauma of the head and neck.
Therapeutic embolization is an effective and relatively safe method for managing many cases of head and neck trauma. In the last 5 years, 78 traumatic vascular lesions--10 arterial transections and 68 arteriovenous fistula--were treated by intravascular embolization at four medical centers. Selection of embolic materials is discussed and different types of lesions are illustrated. Treatment was...
متن کاملArteriovenous Malformations of the Head and Neck.
Extracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are complex vascular malformations to diagnose and treat. They are comprised of congenitally derived arteriovenous shunts with chronic vascular expansion, collateralization, and infiltration of local tissue. Their cause remains unclear, but new genetic and molecular clues are emerging. They may present at any age following an early quiescent perio...
متن کاملEndovascular Embolization of Head and Neck Tumors
Endovascular tumor embolization as adjunctive therapy for head and neck cancers is evolving and has become an important part of the tools available for their treatment. Careful study of tumor vascular anatomy and adhering to general principles of intra-arterial therapy can prove this approach to be effective and safe. Various embolic materials are available and can be suited for a given tumor a...
متن کاملimaging of vascular masses of the head and neck
the classification and imaging appearances of vascular masses of the head and neck are reviewed. the radiological appearances of congenital vascular masses (infantile haemangiomas and other congenital vascular tumours, high-flow and low-flow vascular malformations), acquired vascular masses (benign and malignant tumours, non-neoplastic lesions) and other hypervascular masses are described and i...
متن کاملBleomycin sclerotherapy in congenital lymphatic and vascular malformations of head and neck.
Bleomycin is an established antineoplastic drug, but recently some attempts were made to inject it locally as a sclerosing agent in cases of congenital lymphatic malformations. We present the outcome of this treatment modality tried on 10 paediatric cases of whom 9 had such malformation in the cervical region and one in the parotid region. Seven of these cases had congenital lymphatic malformat...
