A method for selective catheterization and angiography of the branches of the external carotid artery and their subsequent embolization is described. Selective catheterization of arteries for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes was carried out in 148 patients (183 vessels). Embolization of the branches was performed in 79 patients, a total of 111 arteries were occluded. The method was successfully used in the treatment of arteriosinusal anastomoses and arteriovenous aneurysms supplied with blood from the branches of the external carotid artery, severe nasal hemorrhages, and as a first stage before operation for richly vascularized meningiomas, angiomas of the maxillofacial region, and tumors in the region of the neck. |
