Two different calibrated-leak balloons: experimental work and application in humans.

چکیده
Two different types of latex calibrated-leak balloon catheters have been developed. One consists of a Teflon catheter with a detachable latex balloon and is used to embolize branches of the external carotid artery. The other consists of a Silastic catheter with a nondetachable latex balloon and is used to embolize brain arteriovenous malformations. An experimental model and animal experiments have determined the best conditions for safe and reproducible embolization with isobutyl-2 cyanoacrylate (IBC-2). Selective catheterization of branches of external carotid, middle cerebral, anterior cerebral, and posterior cerebral arteries in humans is facilitated, and embolization with IBC-2 has been achieved with these balloon catheters.

Calibrated-leak balloon: accurate placement of the leak.
The calibrated-leak balloon catheter, used for the selective catheterization of intracranial arteries, originally incorporated a silicone microballoon at its tip [1]. Latex balloons have now proven superior in elasticity and tensile strength when compared with balloons made of silicone [2] . Consequently, most workers construct the calibrated-leak balloon catheter by gluing a leaking latex micr...
متن کاملDetachable leak balloon with IBCA/NBCA for treatment of aneurysm.
In a recent case report (1), the authors describe balloon migration through the dome of an aneurysm, and state that small aneurysms make balloon placement and exchange of contrast material for polymerizing agents difficult. Since I have been treating aneurysms by means of detachable leak balloons with IBCA/NBCA, I have been able to overcome these problems. Many therapeutic interventions have be...

متن کاملLeak detection and localization using models: field results
This paper presents the practical results obtained on the field from two different methods for identifying and locating leaks in water distribution systems using network modeling based algorithms. Both methods are based on the sensitivity analysis of pressure measurements to the demand variation in any node in the distribution system. This work is mainly focused on the obtained results using bo...
متن کاملEffects of Flow Hydraulics, Pipe Structure and Submerged Jet on Leak Behaviour
The aim of this paper is numerical and experimental study of the effects of flow hydraulics, pipe structure (particularly elastic behaviour) and submerged jet on leak behaviour. In this regard, experimental tests were performed on a high-pressure circulation set up. Experiments were performed on an old steel pipe and a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe discharged to the atmosphere in a wide...
