ANTIREFLUX CATHETER
Popis: PURPOSE: To evaluate the potential differences in non-target embolization and vessel microsphere filling of a reflux-control microcatheter (RCM) compared to a standard end-hole microcatheter (SEHM) in a swine model. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Radiopaque microspheres were injected with both RCM and SEHM (2.4-Fr and 2.7-Fr) in the kidneys of a preclinical swine model. Transarterial renal embolization procedures with RCM or SEHM were performed in both kidneys of 14 pigs. Renal arteries were selectively embolized with an automated injection protocol of radio-opaque microspheres. Ex-vivo X-ray microtomography images of the kidneys were utilized to evaluate the embolization by quantification of the deposition of injected microspheres in the target vs. the non-target area of injection. X-ray microtomography images were blindly analyzed by five interventional radiologists. The degree of vessel filling and the non-target embolization were quantified using a scale from 1 to 5 for each parameter. An analysis of variance was used to compare the paired scores. RESULTS: Total volumes of radio-opaque microspheres injected were similar for RCM (11.5±3.6 [SD] mL; range: 6-17mL) and SEHM (10.6±5.2 [SD] mL; range: 4-19mL) (P=0.38). The voxels enhanced ratio in the target (T) vs. non-target (NT) areas was greater with RCM (T=98.3% vs. NT=1.7%) than with SEHM (T=89% vs. NT=11%) but the difference was not significant (P=0.30). The total score blindly given by the five interventional radiologists was significantly different between RCM (12.3±2.1 [SD]; range: 6-15) and the standard catheter (11.3±2.5 [SD]; range: 4-15) (P=0.0073), with a significant decrease of non-target embolization for RCM (3.8±1.3 [SD]; range: 3.5-4.2) compared to SEHM (3.2±1.5 [SD]; range: 2.9-3.5) (P=0.014). CONCLUSION: In an animal model, RCM microcatheters reduce the risk of non-target embolization from 11% to 1.7%, increasing the delivery of microspheres of 98% to the target vessels, compared to SEHM microcatheters. ispartof: DIAGNOSTIC AND INTERVENTIONAL IMAGING vol:102 issue:10 pages:641-648 ispartof: location:France status: published
