title: [Therapeutic vascular occlusion with angiographic catheter technique (author's transl)].
abstract: Therapeutic embolization can achieve occlusion of bleeding vessels, arteriovenous fistulas and tumor feeding arteries. Many different diseases can now be treated by angiographic catheter techniques which required surgical intervention in the past. Various embolic materials were applied to produce transient or permanent vascular occlusions. New materials for embolization will be developed. Indications for embolization treatment of tumors are not definitively established because of insufficient knowledge of tumor biology after embolization.
