From humble beginnings in the former Soviet Union, Fedor A. Serbinenko, M.D., Ph.D., became a leading figure at Moscow's famed Burdenko Neurosurgery Institute. While there, he invented and perfected the technique of balloon embolization, which was destined to change the practice of neurovascular surgery forever. We present the life and achievements of the father of endovascular neurosurgery.
The efficacy of local treatment of thrombosis with low-dose antithrombotic drugs (heparin: 30 U/kg, or argatroban: 0.02 mg/kg) was investigated using a novel porous balloon catheter. This novel balloon catheter can deliver drug into arterial walls without causing vascular trauma. Thrombus formation was significantly inhibited in balloon-injured and locally-treated iliac arteries compared with control balloon-injured arteries in 12 dogs. In the systemic high-dose delivery group (ten times as high as the low dose), thrombus formation in injured arteries was significantly less than that of controls in 7 dogs. Low-dose systemic delivery was not effective at inhibiting this thrombus formation. Thus, local treatment with an antithrombotic drug using this novel porous balloon catheter can prevent thrombosis without influencing systemic coagulability.
