  • Title: [Embolization of arteriovenous malformations using compression. Apropos of 11 cases].
    Author: Riche MC, Melki JP, Reizine D, Jue-Denis P, Merland JJ, Natali J.
    Journal: J Mal Vasc; 1986; 11(2):162-7. PubMed ID: 3723022.
    Abstract:
    External compression of both arterial feeder and venous return of an MAV allows embolization material to be stabilized into the area of the shunts. 11 patients were treated according to this method, either by an external compression method (4 cases) or by tourniquets (4 cases) or by a balloon compressing the vena cava (3 cases). The material of embolization was in all cases Isobutyl-2-Cyano-Acrylate. 5 patients were successfully operated after the procedure and 7 patients had considerable improvement after embolization, 2 of them being considered as cured.
