Title: [Treatment of arteriovenous fistulas and of aneurysms using an inflatable and releasable balloon. Experimental principles. Application to man]. Author: Debrun G, Lacour P, Caron JP, Hurth M, Comoy J, Kéravel Y, Loisance D. Journal: Nouv Presse Med; 1975 Oct 04; 4(32):2315-8. PubMed ID: 1101212. Abstract: The authors have perfected a technique making possible the percutaneous introduction of a balloon filled with hydrosoluble iodine and releasable, either in an arteriovenous fistula or in an aneurysm. Experimental jugulo-carotid fistulae and experimental aneurysms in the dog were treated in this way. The technique has been used in two human patients - one with a traumatic caverno-carotid fistula and the other with a complicated vertebral fistula.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
