Renal artery embolization with polyvinyl alcohol foam particles

Polyvinyl alcohol foam particles have been used for renal artery embolization using flow-controlled techniques. This material causes permanent thrombosis which originates in and near the capillary bed. Maximum devascularization of renal tumors can be achieved, and small renal arteriovenous malformat...

Zusammenfassung:	Polyvinyl alcohol foam particles have been used for renal artery embolization using flow-controlled techniques. This material causes permanent thrombosis which originates in and near the capillary bed. Maximum devascularization of renal tumors can be achieved, and small renal arteriovenous malformations can be selectively occluded.
