  • Title: Rapid ventricular pacing for flow control during transarterial Onyx embolization of tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas.
    Author: Tsuji E, Okada H, Terada T.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2021 Aug 10; 14(8):. PubMed ID: 34376414.
    Abstract:
    We report transarterial Onyx embolization with flow control using rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) in a middle-aged male patient with tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas (TDAVFs). The patient completed angiographic obliteration in one session without any complications, and the 6-month postangiographic obliteration follow-up showed no evidence of residual or recurrent dural arteriovenous fistulas. RVP may be a novel treatment option of flow control to facilitate the embolic agent penetrating into the venous side and to achieve complete cure in transarterial embolization of TDAVFs.
