In Vivo Feasibility of Arterial Embolization with a New Permanent Agar-agar-Based Agent.

October 2024
Purpose: Evaluate the safety and efficacy of an eco-friendly permanent agar-agar-based embolization agent (ABEA) (EmboBio®) for intra-arterial use.
Materials And Methods: Six pigs embolized with one ABEA torpedo (6 lower polar renal and 6 lumbar arteries) and one coil (6 lower polar renal and 6 lumbar arteries). Technical success was defined as a complete occlusion with no residual flow in DSA.
Background: Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal mortality in emerging countries. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of uterine artery embolization (UAE) using suture fragment (FairEmbo concept) in a swine model.
Methods: Seven female swine uteri were embolized.
Article Synopsis
- Chronic hemorrhoidal disease affects millions globally, leading to symptoms like rectal bleeding and impacting quality of life; pain is less common but can occur with complications.
- Treatment typically includes lifestyle changes, medications, and nonsurgical options like infrared photocoagulation, while surgical options such as hemorrhoidectomy are standard for severe cases.
- A new method called hemorrhoid embolization offers an effective alternative, involving minimal risks and a same-day procedure with positive results in symptom improvement and technical success rates.
Evaluation of Multiple Embolic Agents for Embolization of the Superior Rectal Artery in an Animal Model.
Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol
April 2022
Objective: To prospectively compare the safety of transcatheter embolization of superior rectal arteries in healthy pigs with multiple agents such as coils, spheres and liquids.
Materials And Methods: Nine adult domestic pigs (three males, mean weight: 60 kg [50-70]) were randomly assigned to the embolization group: copolymer of ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH)-Onyx® (group 1, n = 3), microspheres 500 µ (group 2, n = 3), 2-mm micro-coils (group 3, n = 3). After a selective angiogram has been acquired, the embolic agent was infused at the distal part of rectal arteries.
Purpose: Microspheres are effective embolic agents, especially for the management of bleeding and oncologic lesions. The first FairEmbo study reported the effectiveness of embolization using suture fragments. The effectiveness and safety of arterial embolization with suture-based microparticles (SBM) were assessed in a swine model.
