Clots, oxycel, gelfoam, barium, and cyanoacrylates in transcatheter embolization of rat kidney.

Transcatheter arterial embolization is an interesting technique; its usefulness in urology has not yet been well assessed. The properties and characteristics of some embolic materials among the more commonly used were investigated by means of a new experimental model, i.e., transcatheter embolization of rat kidney. Autologous clots and Oxycel were found to give a transient embolization, whereas Gelfoam, barium, and cyanoacrylates did not allow recanalization or revascularization. Only barium was found in venous vessels. The findings are discussed in view of the clinical application of the embolic materials considered.

Selective arterial embolization for hemorrhage following hip arthroplasty.

A case is presented in which selective embolization of gelfoam was used to control late postoperative bleeding, developing in a patient following hip arthroplasty. Although primarily used in gastrointestinal bleeding, diagnostic and therapeutic angiography, selective embolization is clearly applicable to postoperative bleeding encountered in orthopedics.

[Indication for embolization (author's transl)].

Indications for transcatheter therapeutic embolization are presented in 24 patients who underwent this treatment within the past two years. The indication for this procedure regarding clinical success is discussed. Failure to control massive hemorrhage caused by tumor, trauma or a.v. shuntformation (congenital or acquired) are considered as main indications. It is emphasized that the surgical risk may possibly be reduced by preoperative embolization of well-vascularized lesions. Some of these lesions become operable by presurgical embolization.

[Comparison between two current methods of surgical treatment for otosclerosis].

Statistical comparison is established between two methods of stapedectomy, the first one being the "Teflon-interposition", the second being Schuknecht's method (gelfoam and preformed wire). There is statistical evidence that the Teflon-interposition method is better. The results are also compared with those of other workers.
