  • Title: Permanent ulnar nerve palsy after embolotherapy of arteriovenous malformation around the elbow.
    Author: Cho CH, Choi JS.
    Journal: Hand Surg; 2011; 16(2):167-9. PubMed ID: 21548152.
    Abstract:
    Permanent nerve palsy is an extremely rare but critical complication after embolotherapy of arteriovenous malformations of the extremities. The authors present a case of permanent ulnar nerve palsy after embolotherapy of an arteriovenous malformation around the elbow, and caution that transcatheter embolotherapy of arteriovenous malformations located close to major neurovascular structures must be carefully planned and individualized.
