Embolization of dural arteriovenous fistulas with interlocking detachable coils.

چکیده
Our clinical experience with interlocking detachable coils for the embolization of high-flow dural arteriovenous fistulas is reported. Interlocking detachable coils are useful for transarterial and transvenous embolizations of dural arteriovenous fistulas because (a) immediate coil detachment is possible, (b) the coils can be replaced easily, (c) detached coils rarely migrate, and (d) fewer interlocking detachable coils than conventional fiber coils are required for successful embolization.

Use of interlocking detachable coils in embolization of coronary arteriovenous fistulas.
Thirteen patients underwent transcatheter closure of coronary artery fistulas using interlocking detachable coils alone or combined with fibered coils. Complete occlusion was achieved in 92% of patients; although inadvertent embolization of coils occurred in 23% of patients, all these coils were easily retrieved using snares.
متن کاملClinical use of mechanical detachable coils for dural arteriovenous fistula.
Seven dural arteriovenous fistulas were successfully embolized with mechanical detachable coils. Two lesions were located in the transverse-sigmoid sinus, four in the cavernous sinus, and one in the marginal sinus. All lesions were completely occluded on postembolization angiography. No recurrent symptoms appeared during a mean follow-up period of 11 months. Owing to the length and retrievabili...

SUMMARY This study evaluated angiographic and clinical results in patients with a dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) who underwent percutaneous transvenous embolization. Retrospective chart analysis and radiographic studies were performed in 23 patients (aged 11-70 yrs) with a DAVF treated with percutaneous transvenous embolization in the past five years. Lesions were located in the anterior cr...
متن کاملThe role of transvenous embolization in the treatment of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of transvenous embolization in the treatment of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs), including its efficacy and safety. METHODS We retrospectively studied the charts of 24 patients (21 women and 3 men) treated for an intracranial DAVF since 1990 in whom a transvenous approach was attempted either alone (16 patients) or in combination with arterial ...
متن کاملTransvenous embolization of a dural arteriovenous fistula of the anterior cranial fossa: preliminary results.
We report two cases of a dural arteriovenous fistula of the anterior cranial fossa, one causing subarachnoid hemorrhage and one detected accidentally. The first case was incompletely treated by neurosurgery, and the second one was referred for endovascular therapy. Both fistulas were successfully occluded by transvenous embolization by using electrolytically detachable coils.
