To retrospectively compare safety and effectiveness of embolic agents polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) particles versus n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) for bronchial artery embolization (BAE) control hemoptysis.Institutional review board approved this retrospective study; informed consent was waived. From January 2005 to December 2008, 406 patients (242 men, 164 women; age range, 6-92 years) with major hemoptysis underwent BAE by using PVA (n = 293) or NBCA 113). Technical clinical success,...
Objective: To assess the feasibility of balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) in active gastric variceal bleeding, and to compare findings with those transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).Materials Methods: Twenty-one patients bleeding due liver cirrhosis were referred for radiological intervention.In 15 patients, contrast-enhanced CT scans demonstrated gastrorenal shunt, remaining six (Group 1) underwent TIPS.Seven 2) also treated TIPS, other eight 3)...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy N-butyl cyanoacrylate for bronchial nonbronchial systemic artery embolization in management major hemoptysis.From March 2004 through 2006, 108 patients with hemoptysis underwent cyanoacrylate. common conditions causing were bronchiectasis (n = 34), sequelae tuberculosis 31), active 18), lung cancer 8), aspergilloma 6). A retrospective analysis postprocedure outcomes, including immediate success, recurrence hemoptysis, cause...

To evaluate the role of CT venography in diagnosis and treatment benign thoracic central venous obstruction.Eighteen patients who had undergone both digital subtraction were prospectively enrolled this study. The following features analyzed by two observers: cause, degree, extent obstruction; associated thrombosis; implications for planning treatment. compared defined segments, degree obstruction, correlation was expressed using Spearman's rank coefficient.In all patients, depicted causes...
PURPOSE: To evaluate a paclitaxel-eluting covered stent in reduction of tissue hyperplasia after placement canine urethral model. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Procedures were performed accordance with the National Institutes Health guidelines for humane handling animals; approval committee animal research was obtained. Twenty polyurethane-covered stents (drug stents) and 20 (control placed alternately between proximal distal urethra male dogs. The dose paclitaxel approximately 1800 μg each drug...
To investigate the prognostic factors determining success rate of non-surgical treatment in management post-operative bile duct injuries (BDIs).The study patients were enrolled from pancreatobiliary units a tertiary teaching hospital for BDIs after hepatobiliary tract surgeries, excluding operations liver transplantation and malignancies, January 1999 to August 2010. A total 5167 underwent operations, 77 had following surgery. The primary end point was according different types sustained...
OBJECTIVE. Although there are frequent clinical situations in which esophageal and gastrointestinal stents should be removed, nonsurgical stent removal has been difficult. The purpose of our study was to describe the safety efficacy removing retrievable nitinol with a retrieval hook.
To analyze the clinical outcomes of chemoembolization for solitary caudate lobe hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) found at initial presentation.This retrospective study was approved by institutional review board; requirement informed patient consent waived. From July 1998 to June 2009, 40 patients (28 men, 12 women; mean age, 57 years) have a single HCC lesion in presentation were treated with and evaluated overall survival progression-free survival. Multivariate analyses potential radiologic...
Palliative endoscopic or percutaneous biliary drainage is used for unresectable advanced hilar cancer (HC). The best option in Bismuth type III IV HC has not been established. aims of this study are to identify factors predictive stenting failure and evaluate the effectiveness rescue patients with HC.Data from 110 inoperable were retrospectively reviewed. All received bilateral self-expandable metallic stents. Patients divided into three groups: I, successful initial stenting; II,...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the antitumor effects of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with a solution an anticancer drug (Paclitaxel; Bristol-Myers Squibb, Princeton, NJ) and iodized oil (Lipiodol; Laboratoire Gurerbet, Aulnay-Sous-Bois, France) (hereafter, solution), as well intratumor concentration hepatotoxicity, in experimentally induced liver tumor. MATERIALS AND METHODS: VX2 carcinoma was grown livers 30 rabbits. In 18 rabbits, TACE performed high-dose (4 mg 0.4 mL oil, n = 6),...
