Preoperative Endovascular Embolization of Juvenile Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma
The juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) comprises only 0.5% of head and neck neoplasms. This is a rare tumor, pathoanatomical characterized as benign vascular tumor with frequent localization in pterygopalatine fossa in adolescent males.

متن کاملTransnasal endoscopic resection of juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma without preoperative embolization.
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a benign, highly vascular, and locally invasive tumor. Because the location of these tumors makes conventional surgery difficult, interest in endoscopic resection is increasing, particularly for the treatment of lesions that do not extend laterally into the infratemporal fossa. We report the results of our series of 23 patients with JNA (stage IIB o...
متن کاملPreoperative embolization of intracranial meningiomas: efficacy, technical considerations, and complications.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Preoperative embolization for intracranial meningiomas offers potential advantages for safer and more effective surgery. However, this treatment strategy has not been examined in a large comparative series.

متن کاملMajor complications of percutaneous embolization of skull-base tumors.
The technique of direct intratumoral injection of permanent liquid polymerizing agent was initially described in 1994 and has evolved significantly with experience. We report complications that occurred in two patients during injection of Histoacryl and offer suggestions to prevent such complications in the future. In one patient, the glue settled in the right middle cerebral artery; in the sec...
متن کاملPreoperative embolization.
Preoperative embolization procedures are constantly evolving and allow the performance of, or improve the outcome of, subsequent surgical interventions. Currently, some of the more frequently performed procedures in this group are portal vein embolization (PVE) in anticipation of extended liver resection, preoperative embolization of hypervascular tumors, and chemoembolization of hepatocellular...
