[Indications, procedures and choice of embolization material in transcatheter vascular occlusion].
If it is planned to effect transcatheteral occlusion of vessels, it must be examined whether the relevant vessel should be occluded permanently or temporarily and whether the occlusion should be located centrally in the vascular trunk or in a major twig, or peripherally in the region of the capillaries, arterioles and small vessels. Temporary occlusion with fibrospum is usually sufficient for treating a haemorrhage. Ethibloc or Bucrylate can be employed to shut off an organ and to achieve partial organ necrosis. Arteriovenous connections with a large vascular lumen can be occluded by means of metal particles. Peripherally occluding substances should not be used for embolisations in the gastrointestinal range because of the risk of local necrosis and possible dangerous infection resulting therefrom. To the present day hardly any indications have been found for the use of absolute alcohol. Bucrylate has the drawback, compared against Ethibloc, that the catheter may adhere to the vascular wall. Vessels with a low flow rate should be occluded either by means of balloon catheter or a coaxial catheter system because of the risk of reflux.
