Popis: The use of a suitable direct current applied to a vessel wall by an electrode results in the formation of a thrombus. Firm contact between the intravascular anode and the endothelium is necessary to obtain a strictly localised thrombus. The use of a direct current of 10 to 30 mA. for a period of 15 minutes results in the certain thrombotic occlusion of an artery of 5 mm. diameter. The method is an effective alternative to vascular embolisation used as a preoperative or palliative procedure. Animal experiments and our own clinical experience are described and discussed.
