Balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous embolization of a pelvic arteriovenous malformation.
We successfully performed embolization therapy for a pelvic arteriovenous malformation by the retrograde transvenous approach using a liquid embolic material. This malformation was unique in that it had a single draining vein, which allowed this technique employing an occlusion balloon.
