title: Successful Management of Hemorrhagic Complications during Onyx-18 Embolization of Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformations.
abstract: The most frequent and devastating complication of the endovascular treatment of cerebral AVMs is hemorrhage. This report describes three patients with cerebral AVM who encountered bleeding during Onyx-18 embolization. The bleeding was discovered promptly during the procedure and hemorrhage quickly prevented using Onyx-18. All three patients recovered without any new neurological symptoms. Early detection and prevention of bleeding are very important during interventional procedures to avoid craniotomy and improve the prognosis of patients.
