Abstract:
The scale of craniofacial intervention lies between the fields of neuro-intervention and peripheral intervention for the main purpose to investigate,diagnose and treat the disease entities originating from or supplied by the external carotid arterial system. Patients are usually refered to the oral and maxillofacial surgery,plastic surgery and otolaryngeal surgery. Craniofacial intervention includes mainly the diagnosis and treatment with adjuvant embolization of high-flow vascular diseases,intra-arterial chemotherapy of malignant tumors,embolization of epistaxis,etc. At present,there is no consensus with regard to the diagnosis and treatment of some craniofacial diseases,therefore further investigation and discussion are needed.(J Intervent Radiol,2006,15: 321-322)
