[Devices and Techniques for Transarterial Embolization of Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas: Current Trends in the Use of Liquid Embolic Agents and Microcatheters].
Abstract
nano, provides superior distal access to small feeders near the shunt point, thereby facilitating effective embolization. In cases where the affected sinus serves as a normal venous drainage route, sinus protection balloon-assisted TAE is useful for achieving both shunt occlusion and preservation of venous function. This technique allows retrograde embolization of multiple feeders through the venous side. Understanding the characteristics of various liquid embolic agents and specialized devices is essential for achieving complete cure and preventing recurrence. This review discusses the latest devices and effective strategies for TAE of DAVFs.
