Abstract:
Objective To assess the validity and safety of arterial embolization with medical adhesive in treating peripheral artery pseudoaneurysms(PSA).Methods 25 cases of peripheral artery PSA embolized with Fuaile medical adhesive(FMA) were analyzed retrospectively.25 patients included 28 PSA.Super-selective transcatheter arterial embolization was performed in 19 patients (22 PSA) using 3F microcatheter and 6 PSA in 6 patients were embolized through puncturing directly.All the lesions were treated with mixtures of FMA and iodized oil (1:1) during the radiography.The clinical efficacy and complications were recorded.Results The success rate of embolization was 100% during the operation (28/28), and the average volume of FMA used was 1.8 mL(0.5-5.5 mL).One patient with PSA(d>2 cm) still have hematuria 2 days after the operation.The hematuria disappeared after embolization with micro-coil following re-angiography.Bleed stopped after the second embolization with FMA in one patient with brachial artery PSA.No one developed complications associated with therapy and occurred rebleeding in the follow-up period time (3 months).Conclusion The mixtures of FMA and iodized oil can be a useful alternative embolic agent for the treatment of peripheral artery pseudoaneurysm with high success rate, short operation time and definite clinical effect.
