Selective catheterization and digital subtraction angiography of supraaortic arteries via the transcubital approach: a technical note.

چکیده
During transcubital selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA), difficulties in catheterization of the supraaortic branches may arise as a result of improper catheter design (1, 2]. The catheters used for transfemoral cerebral angiography may not be suited for such studies , and for this reason we designed a new catheter for both transcubital aortic arch angiography and selective or semiselective DSA of the supraaortic vessels. We present our experience with the selective catheterization of the supraaortic branches in 2000 patients.

Introduction: Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are uncommon vascular lesions that can arise in any part of the body. Case Report: In this case study, we presented a huge AVM of the upper lip in a 70-year-old man that he noticed since 5years ago with slow growth in this period. Computed tomography angiography revealed a large AVM with feeders from the right...

Intracranial vessels were examined in 55 patients with both conventional selective catheterization and intravenous digital subtraction angiography using a prototype digital subtraction unit. In 65% of the patients, the digital subtraction angiogram was diagnostic, but the overall quality was inferior to conventional selective angiography. In 22%, the digital subtraction angiogram provided diagn...
متن کاملOcclusion of arteriovenous malformations of the cavernous sinus via the superior ophthalmic vein.
The treatment of five patients with dural arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) of the cavernous sinus via the superior ophthalmic vein (SOV) is reported. The procedure was performed by transcutaneous puncture of the SOV under the guidance of real-time digital subtraction angiography. Complete resolution of the ocular symptoms was achieved in all cases. Angiograms after embolization showed complet...
متن کاملTraumatic carotid-cavernous fistula identified by three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography--technical note.
Conventional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) identified a right carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF). Three-dimensional DSA (3D-DSA) was used to evaluate the CCF before treatment. The 3D-DSA images showed the anatomical relationship of the parent artery and the veins, which was difficult to understand on conventional DSA. The endoscopic image revealed the fistula and cavernous sinus. The direc...
