  • Title: [Catheter embolization of intrarenal arteriovenous fistula formations].
    Author: Berger H, Habersetzer R, Jauch KW, Abendroth D.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1987 Oct; 58(10):675-7. PubMed ID: 3315488.
    Abstract:
    Catheter embolization of renal arteriovenous fistulas is an effective alternative treatment to surgery; general anaesthesia is not necessary and the hospitalization is limited to 2-3 days. Suitable catheters, permanent occlusion material, such as butylcyanoacrylate, and balloon occlusion technique provide a safe and successful embolization even in cases with massive arteriovenous malformations.
